What was once considered to be an essential part of the home has transitioned into a design element. Way back in the day, fireplaces were needed to keep the living space warm and to cook food. Now, they are used to add luxury and that extra special element to the home.
When it comes to a gas fireplace, most of them can be found in the living room. This is where both guests and those living in the home congregate to be social, and the fireplace is a great area to accomplish that task. Of course, as homes have changed, so have the functions of fireplaces. Now, no one says you have to put a fireplace in your living room. Below are some other places you might consider adding this element.
Master Bathroom
Not only will this add a wow factor to the space, but it will also add some heat. This means that you will no longer have to deal with cold floors or air when you step out of the bath or shower. In addition, for those days when you just want to relax and unwind, you can settle into a hot tub and have the fire going in the background, adding light and warmth to the space. It could be a great way to relieve stress.
Garage
If you take pride in having your space look amazing, then consider getting a gas fireplace installed in your garage. Not only will it keep the area warm, it will look much better than having a space heater in the area. With the new and different designs, you can add a fireplace that doesn’t take up a lot of room but will keep the garage toasty warm.
Exercise Room
This may seem like a silly idea, especially since you’ll already be sweating from your workout. However, a fireplace doesn’t only have to be added for heat, it can be added for its beauty. More than likely, your exercise room is pretty boring. Since all you do is exercise in this space, there’s no point in adding extra elements. By putting in a fireplace that doesn’t give off heat, you can add something extra to this space that will give it personality and pizazz.
For a long time, fireplaces were added to homes to make them functional. Today, we still use them for a variety of reasons, including being a place for family and friends to gather. However, they can also be so much more, including design elements that add something extra to a home.
