There are many artistic souls out there who don’ t want to fill their homes with just anything. While you can choose what decorations go up on the wall and what color the carpet should be, it’s a bit tough to find items like a fireplace with artistic influence. Not to mention that you would have to put in a lot more than just the fireplace if you actually wanted to use it.

The designer ethanol fireplace called the Globe is a perfect marriage of form and function. It looks like a modern statue on its own, and becomes a smoke-free fireplace whenever you want. It can swivel 360 degrees, so the warmth and light can be aimed at whichever direction you choose. Seeing as it uses ethanol to burn, there is no smoke, ashes, or soot to deal with in the aftermath. This is a costly addition to your home that will range anywhere from $3,000-5,000+.
