Incorporating fire elements into your home design invites warmth and vibrancy through color, heat, light, form, and texture. The best rooms to emphasize the fire element are those where activity, creativity, and connection naturally occur – living rooms, dining rooms, entryways, and home offices. These spaces benefit most from fire’s warmth, vitality, and energizing qualities.
Lighting: Warm light bulbs under 3000K, candles, neon lights, flame-mimicking bulbs, and torchiere floor lamps that directs light upward, create indirect ambient lighting that simulate the glow of candlelight and sunset.

Color: A palette of bright – red, magenta, orange, yellow and dark – charcoal, cobalt blue, and purple on accent walls, in decor pieces and furniture brings warm vitality to the space.

Fireplaces: A fireplace is the most direct expression of the fire element and serves as a visual focal point in a room.

Outdoor fire elements extend the warmth beyond the home and unite both indoor and outdoor spaces.

Art and Decor: Abstract art, photographs, drawings, curtains, pillows and accent decor that reflect the fire color palette bring in extra warmth into the space.
