Heart of the Living Room

By 1912Studio, member

I designed and constructed this fireplace from cast concrete tiles and mouldings, and two concrete corbels found at a garden shop which we stained to match. I also installed an artwork hanging system and lighting to showcase artwork on the fireplace. This efficient wood-burning fireplace replaced the old brick/gas fireplace, and is the focal point and heart of our 100 old home.
