Bedroom design with fireplace

The bedroom is a special place in every home. The design of this room is approached with special care, thinking through every piece of furniture down to the smallest detail. A fireplace will help add a certain zest to this room. After all, it is he who is associated with the zone of comfort, warmth and peace of mind.

What styles does the fireplace go with?

For each style of room there is an opportunity to choose a product that harmoniously matches it. Let's look at some stylistic trends:

• Classical. This type of design is very popular and does not go out of fashion. Simple and natural materials, as well as their imitation, are suitable for this style.
• Minimalism. This direction implies asceticism and modesty. The model should not even have a hint of decor. The emphasis should be on the flame.
• Modern. The fireplace should be large and located in the center of the room. Decorative elements can be made of glass.
• Country. This style is more appropriate in country houses. The hearth should be decorated with wood or faux stone and reflect a rustic theme.
• Provence. For this style, it is better to choose a product in light shades, and the decor should contain graceful lines and floral motifs. Above the hearth you can place a variety of shelves with candlesticks and photographs.

Imitation or real fireplace?

Manufacturers offer a wide range of both real and electronic products. A wood-burning fireplace must be provided at the stage of planning the house, because... for this it is necessary to consider the height of the chimney. Such a fireplace is prohibited in apartments, with the exception of the top floors of the apartments.

The chimney must exit to the street. In addition, wood burning requires constant availability of firewood in the house. It also needs to be cleaned promptly and the mechanism maintained in working condition. Therefore, many people are increasingly choosing electric analogues.

Electronic models have a mantelpiece, a beautifully finished façade, and even a firebox. The heating efficiency of electronic fireplaces is almost in no way inferior to real models. In addition, unlike the real ones, they have significant advantages:

• They have a realistic flame image.
• Easy and safe to install, operate and maintain.
• The design does not require the construction of a large chimney.
• Fireplaces do not emit acrid smoke and can have an air ionization function.
• They do not require permission to install
• They don't need a supply of firewood.
• May have a remote control

IMPORTANT! Biofireplace is an innovative development. It runs on environmental fuel (bioethanol), burns without smoke and does not require the installation of a chimney.

Where should the bed be in a bedroom with a fireplace?

Electrical products can be placed in any part of the bedroom. They are selected based on the function they perform. Consider the basic location of fireplaces:

1. Most often it is placed on the wall, opposite the bed, so that, while lying down, a person can watch the imitation of the flame. If space allows, then it is easy to arrange a relaxation area in front of it by placing an armchair and a coffee table.
2. For small apartments, a corner building would be a winning option. It is good to place shelves with decorative items above it.
3. Built-in hearth. It is better to make a special niche in the wall for it. This will help save space. It is better to use natural or artificial stones for cladding.
4. The wall-mounted option is universal. The height of the location can be adjusted according to your own wishes. In this case, the bed will be located in the center of the room or close to another wall.
5. Island type. Such a fireplace can become the highlight of the room. Most often this is a glass structure with a fire inside. The stand can be made of wood or metal. The product can be located in any part of the bedroom, including near the bed and on the ceiling. At night it seems as if flames are floating in the air.

ATTENTION! In all location options, the distance from the fireplace to the bed should be several meters, even if the model does not have a real flame. This is a small rule to design with a fireplace.
