BASALE.
a glimpse into the world of Basale.
A vision based on fire
The origin of the Basale brand stems from the vision of designer Sjors Mouthaan, combined with his passion for fire. And not fire as just a source of heat, but also as a connecting element. Read more about the vision behind Basale here.
"A PRODUCT WITHOUT A STORY IS EMPTY"

From vision to tripod barbecue
A first design was created with the vision in which the fire and the user are central. The fire carrier 1.0 .
Contemporary, but also authentic forms were reflected in the minimalist design. The elemental (basal) fire was central, but the ease of use for cooking on this was already very progressive .
The model was improved, and after 1 year the new version came on the market.
Sustainability, among other things, was addressed by choosing durable Cor-Ten steel. The design was also modified so that shipping and storage were easier.
This model, called the fire carrier 2.0, is still being sold.
From "all-in" to adventurous simplicity.
The fire carriers were positively received in the market. The ease of use was thoroughly thought out and, today, the design still appeals to many.
Yet the fire carrier was not the perfect answer to Sjors Mouthaan's vision. Minimalism, back to basics and experience are important criteria here. Even though the fire carrier gives a lot of substance to this, it could be even more minimalist, even more back to basic and the experience could be even purer. How? By "unpacking" the specially developed hoisting mechanism of the fire carrier and developing it into a stand-alone product:
