A cozy spot in the great room by the fireplace

On the original construction drawings, the fireplace was a standard floor level fireplace. I wanted the fireplace to be seen from all angles of the great room, so I designed it on the wall with a custom fabricated surround. The fire logs were also custom fabricated in the style of drift wood in heights to fit the dimensions of the fireplace in a vertical format. I designed the coffee table/ottoman with grandchildren in mind with the soft upholstered edges. A custom framed marble slab servers as the hard surface for the table. The antique french chair I bought for the area were given newly fabricated cushions and skirts with "ballet slipper" ties. Terri Symington
