Architectural elements reflect the design of a fireplace. The five aspects of architecture include texture, material, color, shape and space. A combination any two or more of these aspects will project the design and theme of a fireplace.
The texture and color of a fireplace depends on the type of materials used. Natural textures and colors are suitable to create warm ambiance and atmosphere. The texture and color of a fireplace should be well balanced with the room design by using the right materials as the fireplace frame.
Shape and space makes a difference in determining the mood and environment of a room. Home fireplace are usually installed in a closed space with lack of openness. Adjust the dimension of a fireplace to suite the environment of the room.
