Fireplaces in the interior of an apartment or house: ideas for decoration and design
Fireplaces in the interior are often considered exclusively as a luxury item. But do not forget that this is also a great way to make the house warm and comfortable. The fireplace inevitably attracts attention and serves as a central element in the design of the interior. There are several types of fireplaces, and this classification is usually based on their design and on the materials from which the fireplaces are made.
