Check out my picks to get inspired for creating stylish fireplaces.

There are so many options to dress up your fireplace depending on what your design taste is.

The trend lately has been clean lines and natural materials.

A fireplace also functions as a part of your home decor so you can make it the focal point of the room.

You can choose to be bold and dramatic.

Modern Fireplace Designs

This is a stunning fireplace in the living room. The sleek marble surround adds a touch of elegance, making it a real focal point in the space.

The clean lines of the design keep it modern and fresh, while the natural stone brings warmth and texture.

It perfectly complements the cozy seating area and the rich colors of the rug.

This fireplace not only serves its purpose but also enhances the overall style of the room.

It’s a great example of how form and function can work together beautifully.

This classy fireplace was designed with dramatic veined marble edge details.

The fireplace designed by Ali Budd Interiors used two different types of dramatic vein marble to create the impressive look.

In this fireplace design, the stonework adds a rustic touch, making it feel warm and inviting.

I love how the natural texture of the stones contrasts with the smooth lines of the modern furniture.

The wooden mantel above the fireplace adds a cozy element and a perfect spot for decor.

The large windows let in so much light, enhancing the overall feel of the space.

This design is a great example of blending contemporary style with natural materials.

This impressive moody room is designed by Leo Designs.

A contrasting natural black and white marble was specified.

The natural vein pattern with the edge details makes it a focal point and an inviting space that will keep you warm through the dreary days of winter.

Modern Quartz Fireplace Design

One of the reasons interior designers love quartz, and why it’s such an excellent choice for surrounds, comes down to its aesthetic appeal. 

Quartz, being an engineered stone, offers this incredible variety of colors and patterns that you just can’t find in natural stone. 

This makes it super versatile for any interior design scheme you might have in mind.

When in doubt just keep it simple. The white fireplace with a subtle mantel. The decor detail is the paneled wood wall above the mantle that goes up the ceiling. The built in open shelves and the beams are my favorite detail.

Natural Stone fireplace

Incorporating natural stones like slate or limestone into your stone fireplace surround or hearth can really anchor that feeling. 

These materials bring a texture and warmth that’s unmatched. 

Mid Century Modern Fireplace Design Style

If you are a fan of midcentury modern design, you are in for a treat. This warm and inviting space by Caprini Pellerin Architects stopped me in my tracks.

The recessed mantle with the texture wood panels gives this room such a sophisticated look.

The metallic mantle with clean lines standing out as a framed art. The details of backdrop wall , the juxtaposition of textures adds class and interest.

Dramatic Quartzite Fireplace

Each piece of natural stone is a slice of earth’s history, showcasing unique patterns and a spectrum of colors. 

From the deep, mysterious hues of dark green marble to the classic elegance of white marble, and even the dramatic contrast of a black fireplace hearth, the options are endless. 

By choosing a natural stone fireplace surround, you’re not just installing a feature in your home; you’re bringing in a one-of-a-kind art piece. 

Solid Stone used in Fireplace Design Style

Creating a unique look requires unique, one of a kind of materials. Natural stone slabs have been used for a long time to create marble fireplaces.

The latest trend these days is using full natural stone slabs and installing them up to the ceiling. Below is a an example of Calacatta Gold marble slab bookmatch fireplace.

The marble slabs can get very expensive specially if you have a large area to cover. There is a less expensive alternative in the market. Factory manufactured porcelain slabs are now available with the same marble look/pattern printed on them and they cost 50-60% less than what real marble slabs cost.

Below are two fireplaces designed with porcelain slabs.

The two fireplace designs above used very large stone look bookmatch porcelain slab. These slabs are available in a variety of options.

The reclaimed wood fireplace mantle on the brick wall is giving me all the feels. Such a great focal point to add the charm to this fireplace.

The Marble Focal point

This fireplace is pure elegance, blending modern sophistication with timeless charm.

The arched design commands attention, while the marble’s dramatic veining adds a bold, luxurious touch.

It feels like a centerpiece straight out of a high-end design magazine, perfect for creating an atmosphere of warmth and style.

The layered arch detailing enhances its architectural appeal, and the neutral tones make it versatile for any space.

Paired with soft, cozy seating, it’s a space designed for relaxing evenings or upscale gatherings.

This is more than a fireplace; it’s a statement of refined taste and luxurious living.
