Modern White Marble Fireplace Wall

While the fireplace is askew of the room s center it serves a purpose.

Modern white marble fireplace wall.

A wall of firewood and exposed brick helps temper the modernness and cozy up the industrial. A contemporary but not too modern black marble fireplace punctuated by a brick tile firebox steals the show in an upscale home by denise mcgaha interiors. Large marble tiles affixed from the floor to the ceiling give this fireplace a refined modern look. The white marble on this bedroom fireplace was laid out so the gray vein pattern appears to rise from the lower left corner upward to the upper right corner.

The pretty pottery matches the white and gold veins of the marble. This savvy placement brings a sense of movement to the surround which in turn magnifies the marble s visual presence. Whether they re indoors or outdoors fireplaces make a bold statement no matter the time of year. The window s proximity to the fireplace allows lots of light to be reflected off of the fireplace tile and into the room making it feel bright and airy.

An original fireplace is given a modern facelift with simple white marble and a matte black mantel. Sometimes seen as a thing of the past modern fireplaces are capable not just of giving off heat but also of functioning as a visual and focal point in a room or space and can be sheathed in stone marble or tile and detailed for a contemporary touch.
