Why Opt for Travertine Fireplace Ideas in Australian Homes?

Natural stones may raise your home’s overall worth in terms of lifespan and appearance. Travertine fireplaces come in a huge array of textures, patterns and colours. A stone will always go well with the room’s interior décor or outdoor landscaping. Natural stones like Travertine are preferred because of their longevity in addition to their aesthetic appeal. They complement wood fires just as well, but all stones can tolerate the heat of gas and electric fireplaces. These stones have an extended lifespan if properly maintained and sealed on a regular basis.

Indoor Travertine Fireplace Ideas

  • Simple and Classic Touch
  • Modern designs are characterised by clear, uncluttered areas, sleek lines and glossy, smooth materials. A polished Travertine fireplace provides the sleek appearance, so characteristic of this design, surround by very few to no gaps. Interiors with monochromatic decor are common in modern designs.

    An all-black or grey room is a trend that is expected to blow out in the interior design market this year. A Travertine fireplace in dark grey would look fantastic with this kind of living room decor. Silver Travertine tiles and pavers are an excellent choice. This simple Travertine fireplace surround has a handcrafted wood mantle and trim surrounding a set of tiny rectangular tiles. If you want to add the warmth of Travertine to your house on a budget, this straightforward tile fireplace is a perfect option.

  • Large Tile Traditional Show 
  • The previous Travertine fireplace idea and this one are comparable. Nonetheless, this fireplace gains a luxurious and slightly contemporary touch inside the conventional wood moulding by utilising bigger format Travertine tiles.

  • Eclectic Thick Travertine
  • Luxurious living is the hallmark of glam interior design. The main components of this look include glossy materials, statement furniture, plush textiles and metal accents. Most of the finishes are elegant and tidy. This Travertine fireplace idea would look great as mantels and fireplace surrounds because of their classic design.

    This alternative from our collection of design ideas uses thick blocks of Travertine that are cut to fit together to make the surround and mantel in place of wood moulding. This reminds me of the big, carved stones you may find outside an ancient building. Still, the simple forms complement modern furnishings nicely.

  • Minimalist and Modern 
  • Make sure the colour scheme in a minimalist space is restricted and the fireplace design is well-integrated to keep things tidy and uncomplicated. Choose a Travertine fireplace finish to add classic elements or an electric one for a sleeker appearance.

    Keep the fireplace design central by adding a smooth floor-to-ceiling stone surround to make it the room’s main point. If there are other striking components in space, steer clear of flagstone or river rocks facing. For a tidy appearance, keep the architecture symmetrical on both sides of the fireplace. The elegant Travertine fireplace surround in a bespoke bathroom design doubles as the tub surround and the full wall surface. This Travertine fireplace concept is ideal for a modern home interior with a warm colour scheme when paired with the sleek glass fireplace cover.

  • Modern Centerpiece for Open Floorplans
  • Numerous decoration styles complement a huge, floor-to-ceiling Travertine fireplace with elements that span the breadth of the fireplace buildout. However, an open floor plan is the ideal setting for something like this due to its scale.

  • Rustic
  • Why not opt for rustic and raw rather than elegant and polished? Any living area is made cosier by the worn barn wood mantel and the rustic stone wall surrounding the fireplace. A further layer of depth and texture is added by the variation and haphazard arrangement of the colours (brown, cream and grey).

  • Bohemian Style Interiors
  • Because this design is so free form, your Travertine fireplace ideas must reflect your bohemian flair. Given the strong emphasis on texture, colour and pattern, you could use Travertine stone varieties. If you want the fireplace to be the room’s main feature, think about going colourful by combining matching Silver Travertine and Slatestone. If you want to use the fireplace to draw attention to other décor pieces, go for Travertine fireplace ideas that have more muted hues like white, beige, grey and black with little to no stone pattern.

  • You don’t often see Travertine with such detailed inlays surrounding a stone fireplace outside. However, the enormous arches and our Classic Travertine flooring complement the Travertine fireplace, creating a room fit for any Tuscan home.
