What is the first attribute of a real fireplace that comes to mind? Firewood! Yes, a false fireplace will never burn, but if you put a woodpile of real firewood in it, such an imitation of a hearth will also become a symbol of home comfort.
It will not be difficult to buy a ready-made portal for a false fireplace now. There are inexpensive options that fit into any interior, and in this case, of course, ordinary candles will become a source of live fire..
Yes, ordinary pillows in such an original place. They do not carry any practical function, but they have something in common with the same pillows in the chair. Simple and unusual, a good option to surprise guests.
The mirror in the false fireplace portal will be an excellent solution. This will turn the artificial hearth into a portal leading to the Looking Glass, visually make the fireplace deeper and reflect other interesting interior details..
A false fireplace can be a regular cabinet. It was quite possible to make doors and drawers, then such an imitation of a hearth with a woodpile in the middle would become an additional storage place.
A retro look that comes from the Victorian style. The mantel has always been a place for storing the most beautiful and important things for the owners, emphasizing that the hearth is the main object of the whole house.
There are only two candles, but being reflected in the mirror of the false fireplace, they double and there are more sources of living flame. The portal of a false fireplace can be arbitrarily narrow, because its main purpose is interior decor.
The fireplace as part of the TV stand also looks great. Yes, an imitation of a real hearth occupied one of the compartments, but this is much more beautiful than just a place for storing remotes, some kind of equipment and magazines.
A separate type of fake hearths is biofireplaces. They burn bioethanol, a liquid similar in characteristics to alcohol. It is convenient that biofireplaces can be portable, stand in the place of a coffee table. It should be remembered that when bioethanol burns, a little CO is still released2 and water vapor.
Modern biofireplaces look very urban and are made of glass and metal. Such a hearth really burns, and a chimney is not required.
And finally – a very simple option for those who do not even want to install a fake fireplace portal. A painted hearth, just like in Pope Carlo’s closet. It will not be difficult to draw one, you just need a template..
What are some unique and unconventional ideas for false fireplaces in the interior of an apartment or house? I’m looking for out-of-the-box suggestions that add a touch of creativity and style to the space. Any recommendations or examples of unusual designs would be greatly appreciated!
