Influences
The fireplace - the focal point of the house Kós professed that the hearth had a central role to play in every Transylvanian household. Not only did it provide heat, it would also be used for warming and cooking meals. The wooden bench surrounding the fireplace preserved the relationship between person and fire, intimate by nature.
