4. Fireplace With Wooden Mantel & Surround

With a focus on what surrounds the fireplace, this post takes a different approach to fireplace ideas. The discussion will revolve around the walls, cupboards, and mantel as much as on the fireplace itself.

An elegant fireplace can be the centrepiece of a room.

With large cupboards on either side of the fireplace, this room combines practicality with a strong central feature. Remember to make use of the mantel to complete the design of the room.

 

5. Extravagant Fireplace Steals The Show  

This centrally located fireplace dominates two rooms while also functioning as a divider. Consider this unusual layout when you have a particularly large space that you want to use to create visual excitement.
