It used to be that the fireplace was a staple in every home. Before electricity was around people relied on this to keep their place comfortable during the wintertime and to cook each meal. Now people look at the design rather than how functional it might be. There are a great deal of designs that you can select from that range from the refined, classical, traditional, and ultra modern.
Contemporary
If you live in a open spaced house than you will enjoy the Berlin free standing wood burning flue stove. This is made with curved glass and steel that actually rotates 360 degrees on top of a circular glass floorplate. It is also built with three glass shelves where you can put books or knickknacks. It heats 1,500 square feet in every direction - which isn't much. Still, most individuals will pay $10,000 for the design and nothing more.
Modern
If you enjoy modern design than the Niagra wood or gas burning fireplace is what you are looking for. This is made with a wood or gas burning fuel that is beneath a remote controlled waterfall over the top that is made with stainless steel. The fireplace costs $15,000. For an extra $7,800 you can get the wood storage beneath and a roasting chamber above.
Traditional
You need something a bit more traditional without being boring? The EcoSmart Fire Collection appears simple - but there is more to it than first meets the eye. It does not havea a flue - but ir burns ethanol making it environmentally friendly. Individuals will spend $4,400 and are able to put this traditional fireplace wherever they wish in their house or apartment. It comes in a assortment of shapes and sizes and for an extra $8,000 you will be able to put in a glass back and sides to it with a 'floating' shelf for the flame.
