MATERIAL Highlight: American Contemporary Fireplace Surrounds 

A fireplace is not just a source of warmth and comfort during the colder months. It serves as a conversational piece, an architectural element, and can be the focal point of interior design. Fireplaces are synonymous with the comforts of home: warmth, love, memories, and celebration. 

One key element that can truly elevate the aesthetics of a fireplace is its surround. A well-designed surround transforms an ordinary fireplace into a stunning centerpiece that enhances your space's overall ambiance and character. Let’s explore these captivating design possibilities from MATERIAL Bespoke Stone + Tile.

Bespoke Contemporary Fireplace Surrounds

The sleek design and dynamic patterns seen in natural stone have contributed to the increasing popularity of the American Contemporary Fireplace. New geometric elements push design boundaries while preserving functionality and magnificence in a way that contrasts with Traditional Fireplaces.

At MATERIAL, we ensure every product is fabricated to the highest quality with the finest craftsmanship. With decades of carving experience, our artisans can hand-carve your desired surround from over thirty unique natural stone colors in more than sixty bespoke designs to make the perfect addition to your home or project. 

Let The Innate Beauty Of Natural Stone Take Center-Stage

Natural stone has a striking visual appeal. Whether you seek a simple and elegant structure or an intricately carved fireplace mantel surround, our experts will assist you in achieving your ideal design. 

From Limestone to Travertine and Marble, we recommend suitable natural stone colors to meet your decor and size requirements. The most notable stones of the season include:

Montclair Marble: This ideal marble is excellent for dynamic, modern designs. Available in a range of soft, grey-colored veining and a wide variety of finishes. Add a touch of elegance and prestige to your next project.

Charcoal Limestone: A medium-density, tight-grain limestone with soft grey hues. The neutral dark tone provides a natural contrast and is highly versatile in design possibilities. Available in all architectural and tile formats, in addition to interior and exterior veneer.

Obsidian Marble: Intense and captivating are two characteristics that define this exquisite stone. The white veining complements its striking black color, perfect for accentuating any interior space. This stone is one of the best options for fireplace surrounds due to its wide variety of available finishes.
