Bellevue Condo Fireplace
The original fireplace surround structure was very bulky and the wrong scale for the space. We went for a new gas insert with a slim frame, with porcelain slab floor to ceiling and integrated wood shelves. The side shelves of the structure provide storage for the TV equipment, while the lower shelf is free for the speakers.
Edmonds Remodel
The fireplace wall in this home really needed a lot of love. Originally, we had a gas insert fireplace, but it was small and the builder grade trim and tile surrounding it made it look dingy and really dated. We decided to enhance the center line of the fireplace, adding cabinets and art pieces to flank it. We changed the gas insert and went with a more modern model and used a stucco covering to mimic concrete. The stucco was challenging, the thin layers have been applied multiple times to achieve the intended look.
Golf Course Main Living Fireplace
This is a beautiful house by a Gulf Course in the greater Seattle area. After we lowered the floor in the living room, we realized the pipes and ducting running under the fireplace couldn’t be moved. So the fireplace design needed to hide them. The built in bench that spans the entire wall, was created for that reason. It is capped with a beautiful natural stone called Antracite. The fireplace wall itself was built out a few inches to give it dimension, the cladding product is Dekton ultra compact surface in Trillium Color. The floor is a showstopper wide plank American walnut.
Golf Course Sitting Room Fireplace
Formal, but traveled; somber, but with character. These few words represent the mood of this sitting room. The fireplace is the focal point and no detail about it was left to chance. The material is Breccia Versilia Italian marble, the hearth is inset into the floor, smoothly transitioning to the wood floor. The carved edges and the miter exposed corners make this fireplace appear to be carved from an entire marble block rather than a simple slab. The original bottom edge of the firebricks inside the fireplace were damaged, so we clad them with Brazilian Soapstone.
