MODERN RUSTIC There ’ s no doubt that this blackpainted fireplace is the anchor in this lounge-meets-lodge living room. Sleek modern accents in black forge a visual link to the fireplace, while rough woodsy elements soften the scene and take the edge off this most dramatic of colours.

ELEGANCE EPITOMIZED
The symmetry of the hurricane lanterns on the hearth, the crystal candlesticks on the mantel and the pair of upholstered ottomans suits the refinement that this traditional fireplace exudes. Accents with curvy and straight edges keep the mood light and feminine.

VICTORIAN REDUX
Fresh and fashion-forward are the distinguishing features of this chic living room that takes its cues from its architectural pedigree. The arched firebox and traditional millwork are complemented by a trad gold mirror, modern tufted-back sofa and graphic rug. So swish!

MINIMALISTWARMTH Clean lines and a paredback palette are key to this aesthetic that, though disciplined, is also invitingly warm. The vertical lines of the firebox are balanced by the long horizontals of the table. Faux fur, greenery and natural fibres (wood, linen and wovens) ensure comfort and a connection to nature.
