As we enter 2024, we’re witnessing an exciting evolution in fireplace trends. From creative finishes to totally unique design concepts, the fireplace has become more than just a source of warmth—it’s a statement piece that reflects your individual style. In this blog, we’ll explore the top fireplace trends for 2024, where customization takes center stage, materials find unexpected unions, and traditional concepts are redefined.
Fluted Finish
Fluting has gone beyond its traditional boundaries, making its way into furniture, accessories, and kitchen islands. Now, it’s trending as a unique finish for fireplaces. This finish adds a tactile dimension to a space while maintaining a calming ambiance. It’s a top choice for minimalist designs. When used correctly, a fluted finish can complement a room’s overall aesthetic and feel, rather than detract from it. To do it right, it must align with the other materials and colours in the room.
Natural Stone
Natural stone fireplaces do have a timeless appeal, especially marble ones. However, as we shift into 2024, designers are reimagining their use in fresh and captivating ways. It can be done in a way that it blends with the wall and even the floor or it can be made to pop as a striking focal point, setting it apart from everything else in the space.
Full Height Features
In a sleek and modern reinterpretation of the conventional chimney breast, full-height fireplaces are trending in 2024. Moving away from the traditional mantelpiece, this trend sees fireplaces being installed with finishes that extend to the room’s full height. You’re left with a distinctive feature that accentuates the room’s height and makes a bold statement.
Material Fusion
Another trend we’re seeing emerge for 2024 is the fusion of materials. Households are embracing the harmonious blend of materials, mixing classic brick and stone fireplaces with modern finishes like concrete, metal and even glass. The combination of textures and finishes brings depth and visual appeal to your space, transforming your fireplace into a work of art. This fusion opens the door to endless design possibilities from industrial chic to rustic elegance and everything in between.
Completely Custom
With so many options, a one-size-fits-all fireplace may seem boring. Homeowners can now choose every piece of their fireplace from mantel to finish. It’s all about customization and individualization these days, empowering homeowners to craft unique, one-of-a-kind fireplace designs tailored to their decor. In fact, it’s our favourite fireplace trend for 2024. We love when homeowners transform a fireplace into a personalized masterpiece perfectly suited to their taste!
