Introducing the Axis FAS120: Four Configurations, One Standout Fireplace

Introducing the Axis FAS120: Four Configurations, One Standout Fireplace

The Axis FAS120 has arrived, and it’s already turning heads. Built on the success of the much-loved Axis H1200, the FAS120 reworks that original design with bolder proportions, a refined cast iron interior, and a range of Axis FAS120 configurations suited to contemporary Australian homes. Here’s a closer look at what makes it stand out.

Built for Modern Living

France designed and manufactured the Axis FAS120, and it carries the same design language Axis has long been known for: clean lines, a generous glass viewing area, and a flame picture that becomes part of a room’s atmosphere rather than sitting apart from it. What sets the FAS120 apart, though, is its flexibility. Rather than a single fixed layout, the Axis FAS120 comes in four configurations, so the fireplace can adapt to your space instead of the other way around.

Four Axis FAS120 Configurations to Choose From

Single-sided. The classic Axis FAS120 configuration, and still one of the most versatile. It works beautifully as the anchor point for a living room or feature wall, giving a space a clear focal point without demanding too much of the surrounding design.

Double-sided. For open-plan homes, this Axis FAS120 configuration lets the flame connect two spaces at once. It adds structure and warmth between, say, a kitchen and living area, without fully closing either space off.

Corner. For homes with an angled wall or an awkward corner crying out for purpose, the corner FAS120 configuration turns an underused space into a genuine architectural feature.

Three-sided. For those chasing maximum visual impact, this configuration can be seen and enjoyed from almost every angle in a room, making the Axis FAS120 a true centrepiece rather than a background element.

Performance That Matches the Design

A beautiful fireplace should also perform beautifully, and every Axis FAS120 configuration has been engineered with that in mind. A cast iron interior supports both durability and heat retention, radiating warmth well after the flame has settled. Controlled airflow and efficient combustion technology work together to deliver strong heat output alongside a cleaner burn, keeping the glass clearer for longer and the flame picture uninterrupted.

It’s a combination that’s genuinely difficult to get right: a fireplace that looks as considered as it heats. It’s little wonder the Axis FAS120 recently caught the attention of Completehome, one of Australia’s leading design and building publications.

Why Early Planning Makes All the Difference

If you’re building or renovating, it’s worth thinking about your Axis FAS120 configuration earlier than you might expect. A fireplace like this influences ceiling height, flue placement and surrounding materials. It works best when it’s part of the plan from the beginning, not added in at the end. Speaking with your fireplace supplier early gives your architect or designer time to build the FAS120 into the space properly.
