Gas fireplace improvement ideas?

by

Wondering on any ideas an old gas fireplace in a home. There is a gas hook up inside that hasn’t been used it seems for awhile and unsure how to. I don’t plan on using it- just don’t have any ideas on how to make the fireplace look better. Someone mentioned it looked like a cheap looking fireplace.
Is there a way I could decorate it with removing the inside of it- there’s a gas hook up behind it. Any ideas?
Here is a picture link of how it looks below:

  • Omg that thing is a antique . By the looks this is a old gas fire heater from the 40’s or 50’s. it looks like there is no vent for the fumes. They were design that way. Unfortunately many people got sick from the fumes and they were banned. In saying that if there is no exhaust or chimney you cannot use a gas fireplace. Someone I know had this very same fireplace . It looks like a fireplace but no chimney

    There are nice electric ones that are not bad actually very nice. If you can run hydro to that spot that is a idea.

    Why are there so few modern contemporary homes in the USA?

    are there any government regulations that don't allow this particular style to be built, be waste of energy, gas, materials, etc,?✅ Answers Answerer 1 That depends on where you live, but the majority of US homebuyers tend to prefer "traditional" or older looking style homes. It's just a question of taste and marketing. Builders save money by building the same style for everyone so they just pick what is most popular and stick to that. Popularity lowers prices and is self-perpetuating since building materials and furnishings in that style will also proliferate until the cheapest style for most common people becomes that one. The Northeast, Midwest and Southeast tend to have the most tradutional taste. You are more apt to find modern looking homes on the West Coast , the Gulf coast and the intermountain West. Technically, the common "ranch-style" house is modern and you will find plenty of those everywhere. It's all relative and how you define modern. Back in the early 20th century Craftsman style homes were considered "modern" and now they are considered "vintage and quaint".
