What are the latest trends in fireplace design?
This year, 2021, and probably next, a few options for a designer fireplace have become increasingly fashionable. Today, fireplaces have largely evolved and are breaking all codes with new colors, varied shapes and diverse styles.
Modern style
With laconic, expressive masonry, the modern fireplace has clean, strict lines with a smooth texture. Accompanying the black frame of the fire, it forms a haven of peace in your interior space.
Country style
Creating an atmosphere of peace and leisure, it features a shelf designed with raw wood.
Mediterranean style
The casual sheen of an intricate geometric pattern, the smooth surface and the stunning design of a house are typical of seaside interiors.
Rustic style
Here, the masonry of the fireplace has been perfectly maintained. A shelf made of polished wood enhances the clean lines and natural materials.
Classic style
Thanks to its airy, sophisticated moldings, the classic-style mantel blends effortlessly into any luxury decor.
With a panoramic view
In recent years, fireplace design trends have turned towards a panoramic view of the fire. The fireplace is placed in the middle of the room, surrounded by furniture.
With contemporary lines
Considered a little retro, stone is making a triumphant comeback with more sober, contemporary lines. You’ll find it in more geometric shapes.
Natural textures, as charming as ever
Since their creation, fireplaces have been embellished in a variety of ways. Stone remains the most popular. However, this year, 2021, other modern materials are being offered by manufacturers alongside traditional solutions. As well as having a modern texture, they are durable and environmentally friendly.
The wood
Arrange the wooden elements on the surface of your fireplace as you wish. An unusual design will add charm and warmth to your living room.
The metal
It’s the trendy fireplace solution for 2021. If you have an industrial or loft interior, this is an excellent option.
The glass
There’s nothing more comfortable than seeing real living fire blazing inside a transparent cube on all sides.
Concrete
With its somewhat harsh, laconic appearance, decorating a fireplace with concrete provides an exceptional rendering. Fans of austere loft and minimalism will be delighted to install it in their homes.
Plaster
The succinct design has become very trendy. There’s nothing superfluous about this finish. All you’ll notice is a perfectly flat surface.
Decoration trends for electric fireplaces
Depending on the model, there are different ways of installing an electric fireplace.
Floor-standing electric fireplaces
You can place it anywhere in your home, in a corner or in the center. Considered a piece of furniture in its own right, this model comes in different sizes, shapes and types of flame. To make the right choice, take your interior design style into account.

In addition to its aesthetics, it uses exceptional technology. Using its remote control, this revolutionary fireplace lets you create the flame and fire effects you desire.
The built-in electric fireplace
This type of chimney can be built into the wall. Make sure, however, that the installation complies with European CE and NF standards. Highly decorative, this hearth should be properly installed using a formwork and fairly complex connections. So choose the one that best suits your interior.
The electric wall-mounted fireplace
This type of fireplace can be installed like a painting on your walls. Installed in your home, it adds a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It could even become the center of attention in your home. Before making your choice, consider the size of your space, the nature of the flame and, above all, the atmosphere you want to create in your home.
