Artificial fireplace

In the modern world, where heating is carried out through centralized radiators and boiler boilers, the desire for primitiveness, contemplation of the fire warming the soul, rather than the body, has not gone away, but on the contrary - there has been a tendency to equip their houses and apartments with fireplaces, albeit not always wood .

The artificial fireplace organically fits into our interiors, being an aesthetic element. He attracts and gathers around himself a company for friendly and family communication, pleasant leisure and leisurely conversations.

Varieties of decorative artificial fireplaces

When there is no possibility to equip a real wood fireplace, do not hurry upset. There is always an option, and not one, thanks to which you can still create the desired interior.

All artificial fireplaces can be divided into the following types:

  1. Electric fireplace . It is completely fireproof, because there is no fire in it. Powered by electricity. Very compact, mobile, can be installed in any part of the room, since it is not attached to the chimney. It can be rearranged if necessary, since it does not have a fixed location. It has a wide variety of shapes and sizes, materials for making the outer case.
  2. Bio fireplace - works from a special fuel, which during combustion does not emit smoke or fumes. Very accurately imitates a real fireplace, because it burns a real flame.
  3. Gas fireplace - it burns natural or liquefied gas. Decorated with "boulders" and "logs," such a hearth looks like a real wood-burning fireplace.
  4. Falsh-fireplace - plasterboard portal, which repeats the appearance of the present fireplace. In it you can install an electric fireplace with imitation of a living fire. Also falsh-fireplaces are made of polyurethane - easy and simple in processing material with a great variety of textures.
  5. A complete imitation fireplace is a false fireplace with a shelf on which foam plastic logs are laid or candles are put up. The idea is the simplest way of arranging an artificial fireplace.

By location, all artificial fireplaces are subdivided into straight, angled, built-in, walled, island. The straight lines have a classical U-shape, the angular ones are located in the corner of the room, the built-in ones only see the outer screen of the fireplace, the wall panels are attached or attached to one of the walls, and the island ones are located in the middle of the room.

Artificial fireplace in the interior

Agree, the living room with a fireplace, even with an artificial fireplace, completely transformed, becoming incredibly cozy, with a warm atmosphere of family peace and tranquility. In whatever style the room was made, you can always fit a fireplace into it harmoniously. Fortunately, modern manufacturers offer a lot of options for stylistic design of the "hearth".

If you have a living room in the style of low-key classics, you will like a traditional U-shaped fireplace of light shades with carved bezel. The main qualities inherent in the fireplace in the style of classicism are strict geometry, simplicity of forms, symmetry and proportionality.

Another thing - bold and liberated models in the styles of modern, high-tech or loft. They can have asymmetrical faces and proportions, elongated shapes, non-standard design. Such fireplaces immediately become a key element of the interior, captivating admiring glances.

And to imitate a village house, you just need a corner or D-shaped fireplace in the country style.

However, whatever your fireplace, it a priori is an important part of the situation, its center and just a pleasant detail.
