Whether you're constructing a new home, refurbishing an old fireplace, or adding a decorative one, there are plenty of options to match your style. Whether you prefer a modern, rustic, or something in between, here are a few ideas to inspire you.
A sleek marble fireplace with clean lines brings a sense of modern sophistication to any room. To soften its striking presence and add a layer of coziness, consider surrounding it with plush, neutral carpets that invite you to sink in and unwind. For a contemporary edge, pair the marble with light-toned hardwood flooring that accentuates its refined elegance while adding warmth.
Three-sided or see-through fireplaces are perfect for open-concept homes, spreading warmth into adjoining spaces like the living room, kitchen, and dining area. Bold, marble-clad designs instantly command attention and set the tone for luxurious entertaining. Anchor these dramatic features with durable wide-plank hardwood or luxury vinyl flooring to create balance—a foundation that’s as practical as it is beautiful.

Not every fireplace needs to be the star of the show. For a more understated approach, opt for fireplaces that serve as supporting elements to beautiful built-in millwork or cabinetry. Soft, textured carpets or patterned area rugs add visual interest while absorbing sound and enhancing comfort. This layered effect makes the room feel curated and lived-in, a place where your personality shines.
A fireplace clad in natural stone effortlessly bridges the gap between classic and contemporary styles. Its organic textures and mix of warm and cool tones offer an inviting atmosphere that’s both stately and approachable. Pair with herringbone wood floors for a tailored look, or opt for modern tile for easy maintenance and visual interest.
