While in most cases the fireplace itself is the main attraction, the focal point of the room it’s in, sometimes the accessories and the décor around it can take that role. Wood-burning fireplaces require wood and storing it in a fashionable way can either be difficult or wonderful, depending on the path you choose. Firewood storage can be a blessing in disguise and can become the beautiful decor feature the room is lacking.
A simple support made of metal pipes and wood perfectly fits in the corner right next to the fireplace. Plenty of room for firewood. The castors make it easy to roll the unit wherever it’s needed.
In this case, the wood is stored under the fireplace. The design makes it easy. The concrete platform leaves enough room underneath just for that.
In most cases, however, vertical storage is preferred. Built-in firewood storage spaces like these ones not only look nice but are also very practical.

The wood storage system matches the fireplace in terms of shape, size and color and together they stand out as a modern duo. Very clean, simple and practical.
A single compartment can be nice if it has a unique design or shape but, if you’d rather be practical and make the most of the storage unit, then something like this is just what you need. 8 square compartments waiting to be filled.

The clean and simple design of the fireplace is complemented by the wood storage system. They both feature rectangular shapes, are black and stand out against the white background.
The firewood storage can also be a little more discreet. Instead of a niche carved into the wall somewhere around the fireplace, this one is hidden in the back.
Two symmetrical vertical compartments are designed to keep the firewood nicely stored close to the fireplace. The one at the bottom is the one actually being used while the other one is a backup, for the sake for symmetry.
Instead of a vertical design, a horizontal approach can also look just as interesting. The firewood storage is built into a low window unit which uses it as an element of décor.
A simple cubby holds the logs for this fireplace in a neat square. It’s compact and rustic and also serves as a side table.
The wall between the kitchen and the living room was torn down. The bottom portion became a bar/ island with a built-in fireplace and an open storage compartment for the firewood, accessible from both sides.
If you’re looking for something more casual which doesn’t require you to tear down walls or redesign your home, then keep the logs tightly and neatly organized using leather belts.
A hugely high ceiling like this one and a fireplace wall that goes all the way up are definitely impressive but the most interesting thing is the way the firewood storage draw the eye to the center, right where it needs to be.
Minimalist and somewhere between modern and traditional in terms of style, this fireplace features an extension which doubles as a coffee table. The base which supports it is hollow and being used to store wood.
Wall dividers like this one are popular and there’s a great reason for that. They allow you to incorporate a fireplace which can be enjoyed from two areas at the same time and there’s also plenty of room for the wood underneath.
If you like to always be prepared, then a massive wood storage area like this one should be what you’re looking for. The logs and nicely stacked and they actually look really beautiful.

Usually the fireplace and the wood storage are placed close together. In this case, the fireplace sits at the bottom and the wood at the top, neatly organized into a square pile.
A fireplace with a rustic design, divided into two. The fire crackles on one side and the wood waits to be turned into ash on the other.
Wood crates are being used here to hold the firewood. They’re placed on the entrance hallway, under the coat rack and they also serve as a side table.
Sometimes the simplest solution is right in front of you. Use a bucket to store the firewood and leave it in plain sight, making it a part of your home’s cozy and welcoming décor.
