TRY A COOL LOOK FOR THIS HOT COMMODITY.
The fireplace is the focal point of most living rooms, and ’tis the season to gather around it. So why not enhance the look with decor beyond family photos?
Storing lumber indoors for your wood-burning fireplace can be a fashionable opportunity. Skip the bulky steel racks that consume valuable floor space and stack wood vertically in a contemporary built-in niche. A fireplace designer, such as KJB Fireplaces in Ramsey, can incorporate floor-to-ceiling storage to fill dead space along the wall. The design drives the eyes upward and creates a dramatic aesthetic, especially in taller rooms.
For those with less space but plenty of entertaining around the hearth on the schedule, smaller built-ins or wall-mounted frames also are practical and visually stunning.
