Modern Modular Fireplaces

Skema by Mario Ferrarini Takes Fireplace Design to a Whole New Level

— February 18, 2011 — Art & Design
Skema by Mario Ferrarini represents a diminutive, but decidedly stylish approach to minimalist fireplace designs.

Featuring open spaces that can be customized and moved around at whim, Skema by Mario Ferrarini incorporates a multi-purpose design which can easily be alternated between aesthetic and functional concerns depending on the needs of its owner. When needed to store wood for example, the Skema is easily up to the task. During summer months when fires are impractical and unnecessary, however, this now vacant storage area can easily be switched to a display.
