Enjoy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Modern&nbsp;Geometrics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your tastes lie within more contemporary aesthetics, opt for a timeless yet modern fireplace design and complement with a statement-making and striking surround. Pastel colours are a classic yet on-going trend favourite, and geometric shapes are the must-have of interior design, so why not optimise your home with both?<\/p>\n<p><em>Tip: When attempting to achieve modern aesthetics \u2013 stick to minimal palettes, and keep material types to a minimum. This will create a coherent and effective style throughout the space.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Antique Accents<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to classic styling with an antique and authentic edge, fireplace mantels are often the main feature of these very stylised spaces, enhancing a timeless theme to both modern and traditional builds. When adding antique-inspired details, opt for chrome pieces and tapestry furnishings for a comprehensive and distressed aesthetic, highlighting a touch of historic character throughout.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elegant Touches<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Comfortable and formal aesthetics are a popular choice for elegant-inspired styles and decor details. A traditional mantel can be enhanced by whimsical details, showcasing a sense of vintage yet stylised glamour throughout the home and living area. When designing a relaxed yet elegant surrounding, consider injecting bright white tones to give a modern theme against classic floor and fireplace mantel tiles and furnished areas.<\/p>\n<p>The fireplace is often considered the heart of the home, that\u2019s why here at Real Flame \u2013 we\u2019re here to enhance your home\u2019s design with our beautiful and unique range of traditional and contemporary fireplaces and stoves.
