You certainly are not limited as far as what you can do with a fireplace but you may be limited to a certain extent because of the available space where the fireplace is going to go. Here are a few things that can help you to get started with the decision-making process.
First of all, you should look on the Internet to see all the different fireplace designs that are available. These designs will come from two different people, primarily.
First of all, you will have fireplace designs that are available from contractors who specialize in building this type of a structure. These will tend to be some of the better designs and also will offer you some unique choices because they are trying to gain your business through the pictures that they offer. You will also find people who put pictures of their new fireplace online in order to share with friends and family. These also can give you some great ideas as far as fireplace designs are concerned but you will not have multiple choices on one website.
Something that you may want to keep in mind with a fireplace design ideas is that you're going to need to go along with whatever the decor of the room is. If you are going for a contemporary look, there certainly is nothing wrong with building a contemporary looking fireplace but make sure that you don't fall into a trap. What is contemporary today may be outdated tomorrow so make sure that you build something which is going to last for the long term, especially when it is as permanent of a structure as a fireplace.
You are also going to have other choices to make, such as what type of fuel you're going to use or the material that is going to make up the exterior of the fireplace. Although traditional wood-burning fireplaces are always nice, many people tend to go with the convenience of gas. It also is a great way for you to be able to burn a fire regularly without having to worry about the smoky smell that typically comes with a wood burning fireplace.
