t ’s probably safe to say that
there isn’t a single one of us
who hasn’t dreamed of a night
in front of a crackling fire.

Fireplaces conjure images of warmth,
relaxation and also make great focal
points for any room.
Today’s technologies offer endless
possibilities to create a sanctuary within
our homes as we enter into the autumn
months here we take a look at some
of them.
Adding a fireplace to an otherwise small
and uninviting room can transform it into a
place you absolutely hate to leave, and it

doesn’t have to mean tearing down walls
or undergoing a major renovation.
Innovative new designs allow homeowners
to have the ambiance that only a fire
can provide, just about anywhere.
Ceiling-suspended models free up floor
space beneath the unit, while freestanding
models in every shape imaginable allow
you to find just the perfect fit for unused or
unusual spaces.
Have just a foot or two of wall space
to devote to your dream? There is a
fireplace out there to fit your lifestyle and
space limitations. Even a table-top can
host a tiny model designed to light up
your life. Think BIG in a small room!
