Portable electric heaters aren’t known for their aesthetic caché, let alone for their double-duty capacity. Tubes Radiiatori is changing all that with the ingenious mid-season plug-and-play collection of innovative electric heating.

The premise is brilliantly simple: provide targeted heat for “mid-seasons,” those transitional times in Autumn and Spring when there’s a slight chill in the house but it’s not cold enough to warrant global heat.

Plug&Play electric heating is comprised of four individual units, each of which offers instantaneous spot heat while also performing a separate additional function.

The sculptural Origami is a folding screen and heated towel rail. Sublime Scaletta is ideal for warming up towels or drying clothes. Milano free-standing is a veritable work of art, earning its keep through aesthetic appeal alone. And Square Bench is like a mini coffee table, providing a handy “support or a seat for a moment of relaxation.”

The Plug&Play electric heating collection represents an innovative concept, synthesizing aesthetics with smart energy use. Read more about it at Tubes. And check out this post for another great eco-wise appliance.
