It’s no secret that the fireplace is the classiest focal point in any living room. Sure, wall art, super big flat screen televisions and even coffee tables can grab your eye, but the fireplace is a little bit more special than all of those.

If you’re interested in some of these fireplaces, odds are they were either created or heavily influenced by Dominique Imbert. Dominique is arguably the greatest thing to ever happen to contemporary fireplaces and the person behind focus fireplaces.
