Fireplaces On Everyone’s Wishlist
Fireplaces aren’t only for fall and winter. As a stylish element, fireplaces can become a decor staple inside or outside your home. Fireplaces come in as many styles as homes, and are available to accent modern or rustic spaces, burn gas or natural wood, and add sleek or warm undertones to any room. What’s certain is that there are many ways to accomplish an amazing fireplace in nearly every room. Fireplace in the bedroom? Wow. Fireplace in the bathroom? That’s luxury.
Fireplaces in bedrooms are nearly always gas - offering a quick on/off option for instant stay-in-bed vibes. That likely means you’ll have the opportunity to outfit your fireplace in tile. Try floor to ceiling looks that accentuate the space, in a different texture and color than the drywall surrounding it. Concrete, linen, or wood textured cement tiles offer tons of versatility.
A fireplace can also be the centerpiece of your space and has been since we were living in caves. Architectural fireplace centerpieces started around the time of mid-century style homes and have taken off from there. To this day, an accented fireplace looks great next to a huge window and some built in bookshelves, creating a great place to sit, relax and enjoy.
When natural elements and modern aesthetics meet, an indoor/outdoor space bring all of your favorite indoor elements to the outdoors. Usually this means outdoor loungers, kitchens, and of course a wood burning fireplace to take advantage of late summer nights.
Who said fireplaces belong on the wall? Modern open concept homes can benefit from lessons from atomic ranches - a cool and sleek fireplace is a great room divider and you can benefit from it anywhere in the house!
Fireplaces can come in all sizes, shapes, and forms. If you have a tiny cottage or just want to cultivate that tiny cottage feel for a little bit of winter hygge, wood burning corner or wall-mounted units that provide the crackling warmth of a fire in a small and safe space.
