Below are five options for a master bedroom fireplace. All
fireplaces shown will have a gas fireplace using either a gas unit or gas logs
insert with remote control. All options will have a TV mounted above the fireplace.
The fireplace wall is across from where the bed is located.

originally wanted. Below is the inspiration photo.
Option 2

European look with Calcutta stone mantel and surround. This option uses log
inserts like option 1. This look is more French or Italian. Below is the photo of the mantel and

As you can see from the above drawings the design of the
fireplaces changes the style of the room from Southwest to formal and in
between. When choosing a fireplace style keep in mind the style of the house
and other rooms.
