Sometimes a brick wall is used between the wall and the fireplace, especially when the fireplace itself is also made of brick - it will be an ideal option in which the protection will not be evident, but will look like an integral part of the fireplace.
When decorating a room with a fireplace, do not forget that combustible materials should not be located close to, for example, curtains that have repeatedly caused fires. Various skins spread out in front of the fireplace can also be attributed to this. carpets.

Safety must still be in the first place, otherwise no coziness and comfort will not work.
