Contemporary or modern design highlights the space and colors of your home. Clutter is minimal and shapes are simple and sometimes bold. To add comfort and warmth into a contemporary space, look to the wide selection of modern fireplaces available.
Keeping the fundamental principle of open, clear space, gas fireplaces built into and flush with your wall are perfect. Designed to appear almost like a work of art, these units are mostly direct vent technology and blend into the living room, bedroom and even the bathroom well. Some, like the Napoleon BGD36CFG Crystallo™ Direct Vent, have a unique bed for the flames. Glass and stones are popular alternatives to a traditional log set and take the appearance of the fireplace to a whole new level.
Other “flush with the wall” gas fireplaces are design with an elongated frame, stretching to create an impressive sightline. The Heat & Glo Cosmos SLR is a stunning model that comes with finish features to truly customize the unit. Five gorgeous front finishes are available and your choice of four different colors of glass can be fitted.
In loft settings where the ceiling soars, a horizontal fireplace might not fit. Check out the towering options from quality manufacturers, vertical gas fireplaces that draw the eye and the imagination.
Napoleon’s Tureen™ GD82-T has a satin chrome panel that reflects the pleasing shape of a ceramic bowl holding the leaping flames. The Tureen boasts Napoleon’s Medallion burner system, an impressive technology that creates the impressive sight.
Heat & Glo offers an award-winning fireplace sure to amaze even the most discerning visitor. The Cyclone Custom model captures a tower of flame in a glass cylinder offering an all around view. Display this wonder in a decorative front or on its own flanking a bar or archway. The Cyclone fits well into small spaces or built into your wall. This fireplace will be a bold focal point in any modern home.
When you want to move the fire into your room, consider a gas stove with contemporary styling. The Jøtul GF 370 DV offers three views in a sleek triangular shape. This direct vent model stands alone in your living space, a true conversation piece providing warmth and a cozy atmosphere.
Other gas stoves can fit in well with modern, clean designs. Opt for a pedestal model with large, clear doors and simple shapes.
The convenience of natural gas fireplaces suit contemporary styling as well. Many come with remote controls and there is no need for the clutter of log racks and other wood burning tools. Whether built into the wall or a fixture in the room, gas fireplaces and stoves are the ideal addition to your modern home.
