Luxury Carrara Marble Fireplace with Brass Detailing

This bespoke contemporary wall fireplace reinterprets the proportions of a traditional mantel using a refined combination of natural stone and metal. Carrara marble forms the principal surround, bringing subtle veining and a strong architectural frame to the fire opening. Brass-detailed steel introduces warmth and contrast, adding definition without making the design feel overly decorative.

The fireplace retains the familiar presence of a traditional mantelpiece while its clean lines, restrained detailing and modern materials give it a distinctly contemporary character. The combination of marble and metal allows the surround to stand as a substantial feature within the room, while keeping the flame at the centre of the design.

A matt black fire chamber provides a deep, understated backdrop that draws attention to the movement and colour of the flames. Natural-style fuel-bed decoration softens the precision of the surrounding stone and metalwork and gives the open fire a warmer, more inviting appearance.

The design can be specified as either an open-fronted gas fireplace or a bioethanol fire. The dimensions, marble selection, metal finishes and detailing can all be adapted to suit the proportions and material palette of the wider interior.

BESPOKE DESIGN

Architectural fireplaces, designed without precedent

If you can conceive it, we can deliver it. That is what Modus does best. Working closely with our in-house design team, and in collaboration with Europe's leading manufacturers, we develop fireplaces that respond precisely to the architecture, materiality, and intent of each project. The result is a fireplace tailor-made for its setting, and for no other.

01
Material Choices

Every element is open to specification, from stone, metal, and finish through to proportion and detailing.

02
Precision Engineering

Each fireplace is engineered in close partnership with Europe's leading manufacturers, with structural detailing and combustion performance resolved as part of the design.

03
Seamless Integration

We work as an extension of the project team, from concept through to commissioning, so the fireplace sits within the architecture rather than against it.
