Are you a fan of great interior design? Do you love decorating your home with the latest must-have home décor trends? Are you always on the hunt for ways to refresh your interior spaces and move with the seasons? Then you’ve probably already realised that many people with a passion for gorgeous interiors are opting for vertical radiators to make a stronger style statement.

The ability to upgrade the look and feel of your home is something that homeowners up and down the country enjoy doing on a regular basis, so in this article, we'll be discussing the reasons why so many interior design lovers opt for vertical radiators to adorn their walls.

 

A Wide Variety of Shapes and Styles

Vertical radiators come in a wide variety of different shapes, sizes and styles, so it's easy to select a unit that perfectly suits your personal taste and interior design style.

From contemporary panel radiators that work well with ultra-modern rooms to column radiators for those that prefer a more vintage or traditional look in their living rooms, hallways or bedrooms, there's a tall radiator to suit any design type and budget.

For bathrooms, vertical heating units such as tall radiators or vertical towel rails can help add much-needed heat as well as an impressive focal point to the room. Some radiators in our current range also have a dual purpose with certain designs combining exceptional heat output with a sleek and stylish mirror, giving a multi-functional designer radiator that's just perfect for bathrooms or bedrooms.

Terma Rolo Mirror Vertical Radiator

The Terma Rolo Mirror Radiator is a perfect example of a stylish vertical radiator that helps save on space, offers exceptional heating while adding an extra function, the mirror! Stand alone vertical mirrors can be expensive separately, and then you have to worry about if you have enough wall space, or if its a free standing, if you have the floor space. Well, now you don't have to worry about that. Combine the two instead, minimising the cost while making the most of the limited space you may have. Starting at just £321, the Terma Rolo is really an impressive tall radiator that's brilliant for bathrooms, bedrooms and even hallways. 

 

 

More Artwork Than a Radiator

For those with an interest in modern art, some of the vertical radiators (and horizontal radiators of course) offered by Designer Radiators Direct look more like a piece of contemporary art than a radiator!

Not only do these modern radiators enable you to keep a warm and welcoming temperature around your home, but they can also make a real style statement with a plethora of different designs featuring oriental inspired waves, ornate Moroccan styles and contemporary tubes. They are sure to be a real talking point in any home in fact.

Reina Dimaro Vertical Radiator

This Reina Dimaro Vertical Radiator is an amazing example of a designer sculpture. This vertical radiator curves over each column style rail, adding contemporary style and really optimising its heat output. The tall radiator also comes in a range of colour options to really appeal to your aesthetic. 

 

Making the Most of Available Space

Another element that makes vertical radiators so popular is the ability to make the most of any available wall space and free up other areas which you might want to use for key pieces of furniture, prints and canvases or TV units. The vertical space on your wall is very rarely used except for the odd floating shelf or picture frame, so tall radiators really are brilliant for using this wasted space. And not to mention, if you purchase a designer radiator, you don't want it hidden behind your sofa or table, hiding its design and possibly limiting its heat output. You want it on display, to show off its gorgeous design and to openly heat your space. This is where tall radiators really shine. 

Many modern radiators have been specifically designed to help maximise space and are streamlined to allow exceptional levels of heat while freeing up wall space for other things. Regardless of how much space you have available to you, you're almost certain to find the perfect vertical radiator to suit your room.

Reina Casina Vertical Aluminium Radiator

Our tall radiator, the Reina Casina is a great example of a streamline design. Its available as a single panel design or if you want extra heat, a double design. Its a highly popular piece for any space around the home and starts at the price of just £183.

 

A Wide Range of Colours and Finishes

Modern radiators also offer the ability to add a pop of colour to any room, and many of our vertical radiators are available in a rainbow of beautiful colours as a result. From calm and serene neutral shades of white, cream and mocha to bright and bold hues of green, pink and even purple, the sky really is the limit when it comes to selecting a design that matches your existing colour scheme. The design's for coloured radiators aren't limited either, you can add bespoke colours to modern panel radiators or special finishes to column radiators.

If you've been seeking something with more of a classic look and feel, then many of our designer radiators come in a plethora of other finishes too. From on-trend copper coloured column radiations and brushed steel panel radiators to antique finishes for a more vintage look, there is a vertical radiator finish which will pair effortlessly with your vision for your space.

 

Lux Heat Oxford 2 Column Vertical Radiator Made To Order

Our Lux Heat Column Vertical Radiator is available in a range of RAL colours, special colours and even the timeless bare metal lacquer. Starting at just £71, its a luxury radiator with a highly appealing price.

 

Electric and Central Modern Radiators

Not only is this style of vertical radiator great for saving space, providing an effective heat source and looking great on the wall, it also offers fantastic practicality too.

For those of us that want to move a radiator to another part of the room in order to use the space for something else, the idea of having to lift up beautifully polished floors, gorgeous tiles or brand-new carpets to relocate it is not a welcome prospect.

However, our tall radiators come as both central heating and electric models so you won't need to bring in a gas engineer or spoil the look of your room to place a radiator somewhere else.

All that you need to install a vertical electric radiator is a power source and a little time, making it easier than you’d think to it to another wall without spoiling all of the work you've already done to create the perfect interior design for your home.
