A living room with a fireplace lends the home a touch of <strong>timeless elegance<\/strong>, even when the fireplace is small or essential in design. But furnishing the room requires some extra care: let&#8217;s find out which ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Room with a fireplace: how to furnish it<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The presence of a <strong>fireplace<\/strong> within a room, be it a living room, lounge, living room or even a bedroom, is a <strong>significant architectural <\/strong>element, capable of catalysing the gaze of anyone entering that environment. The <strong>seating<\/strong> in the living room should be <strong>oriented towards this attractive element<\/strong>, or, if more space is available, you can also place a sofa and a pair of armchairs opposite each other, perpendicular to the fireplace. If the fireplace, on the other hand, is <strong>in the bedroom<\/strong>, the <strong>bed <\/strong>will have to be <strong>oriented towards this focal point<\/strong> and also any armchairs or sofas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CAMINO_02.png\" alt=\"Sferatus: la lampada firmata Bontempi\" class=\"wp-image-102488\" title=\"\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Sferatus: <\/strong>Bontemi Casa lamp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From the classic fireplace to the electric fireplace: to each his own<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many types of fireplaces: from the most <strong>classic and elegant made of marble or stone<\/strong> to the more <strong>informal <\/strong>in <strong>brick<\/strong>, to the <strong>modern in masonry or chalet-style wood<\/strong>. And again, <strong>gas fireplaces<\/strong> with essential shapes, <strong>fireplaces with a contemporary design<\/strong>, they are sometimes suspended or set into a partition wall and useful for separating a large space in an original way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the fireplace is classic, in marble, it is better to <strong>match furniture and accessories with an essential style<\/strong> and homogeneous colours, such as a <strong>total grey<\/strong> or choosing <strong>beige tones<\/strong>, precisely to enhance the richness of an important fireplace, perhaps even a period one. The usually less demanding<strong> brick fireplace<\/strong> can be interestingly <strong>accompanied<\/strong> <strong>by livelier seating or furnishing accessories<\/strong> for a contemporary New York-inspired style. If, on the other hand, we are talking about an <strong>ultra-modern fireplace<\/strong>, then the advice is to <strong>respect the minimalism of the room<\/strong> with minimal design, transparent elements, metals, and clean lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A furnishing accessory that can be <strong>matched to any style of living room is the footstool or puff<\/strong>: in leather or velvet, <strong>coloured or matching<\/strong>, it is always perfect to complete a room with a fireplace.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to enhance the presence of the fireplace: inspiration and tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever the fireplace, there are two ways to emphasise its presence: by <strong>enhancing the wall that houses it<\/strong>, perhaps by painting it in a different colour than the others, and <strong>by carefully choosing<\/strong> <strong>what to place above<\/strong>it. When it comes to setting up the upper part, there are several options: <strong>a large painting<\/strong>, classical or contemporary, will bring more solemnity to the living room or the space that houses the fireplace, making the room even more important. A <strong>mirror <\/strong>will grant the same effect, also giving<strong> brightness and depth to the room<\/strong>. Also original are <strong>collections<\/strong>, i.e. elements of a smaller size: composites of pictures, ceramic objects of the same colour range, or a collection of <strong>vases<\/strong>, or perhaps a simple series of <strong>seedlings all alike <\/strong>can create <strong>a truly exclusive scenic feature<\/strong>. Another tip is to place only <strong>pictures <\/strong>above the fireplace: maybe <strong>all in black and white<\/strong> or with related subjects such as family, nature, passions. And all of them with the equally styled frames <strong>but of different sizes<\/strong> or<strong> all different in one colour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, especially when the living room is smaller, <strong>the fireplace must coexist harmoniously with the TV<\/strong>: whether it is a classic fireplace topped by an ultra-flat screen, or a classic TV model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another detail not to be <strong>forgotten<\/strong> for those with a wood-burning fireplace is that <strong>the wood itself<\/strong>, sorted into containers or stacked neatly, can be <strong>a fascinating piece of furniture<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A living room with a fireplace lends the home a touch of timeless elegance, even when the fireplace is small or essential in design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":102493,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5862],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-102500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bontempi-casa-proposals"],"acf":{"blog_cta":{"tagline":"","title":"","body":"","link_text":"","link":""},"gallery":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102500"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102500\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":102502,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102500\/revisions\/102502"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
