Planika Fires: Your ‘Burning Desire’ Has Arrived. Innovative, Technologically Advanced Fireplaces

Having your own personal fire place in your home is, for the most part, a stroke of luck. It’s rare to find a fire place already built into your home and/or apartment. And while there are ways to supply your home with one—yes, the Yule Log that runs twenty-four hours on Christmas day counts; but still, those fireplaces just haven’t quite “warmed” your heart.

Planika Fires intends on fixing that void with its elegant and sophisticated style, equipped with the most advance technology in contemporary lifestyle fireplaces—moving away from the traditional, generic approach in both emissions and style. These smokeless based fireplaces are environmentally friendly, do not require any chimney installation, and you’re able to enjoy within just ten minutes after installation. And Planika Fires is being used across the world in some of the most exclusive and sought-out spas, resorts, hotels and restaurants like the Grand Palais Lille in France, and the Quality Resort & Spa in Norway.

Innovative “Fire Design” technology by Planika provides a new breath of life to ‘biofireplace’ technology. While some hotels and spas are using Burner Casing and Fire Line Automatic models, and restaurants gravitate more towards the Outdoor & Indoor models, we at The Manual are hyped by the Modern Line, Coffee Fire Long table. This beautifully crafted coffee table can not only be used as just a functional piece of home décor, but you will now be able to comfortably cook marshmallows without having to venture out and setup in your backyard, or even worse, camping out in the woods. Though there is a glass cylinder that encases the dazzling flame, and it is positioned on one side that provides more table space to be used at your discretion, you just have to make sure that your cat’s curiosity doesn’t turn them in to an additional ingredient for your S’mores.

The cast of season 3 of Squid Game.

After a long delay between the show's third and second seasons, the third season of Squid Game is coming less than a year after the second. Now, we've got our first trailer for the new season, and it follows up on the major cliffhanger that ended the show's second season. The second and third seasons were filmed at the same time and written as a single long arc.

The first teaser for season 3 suggests that Player 456 and the Front Man will meet one last time. It also reminds us that the show has more twists and turns to come, and promises to bring the story it started all those years ago to a satisfying conclusion.

Fast-forward to now, and Dobrev is all-in with F1 thanks to her greater appreciation for the world-class drivers and their sensational teams.

This past weekend, Dobrev attended the 2025 Miami Grand Prix on behalf of Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% to support their iconic partner, Scuderia Ferrari HP. The Vampire Diaries star is also friends with Lewis Hamilton, one of the greatest drivers in F1 history, who competes for Ferrari.
