This fireplace design is proving to be quite popular. This is the third time I’ve done some variation of the theme, each time sizing the project to fit the space and modifying the design to customize it for a client.
There were a couple of things that I did differently on this project. First, was the addition of the floating shelf to accommodate the soundbar. The second change was the addition of a flush-mounted outlet with USB ports in the mantle shelf. This should prove to be a great feature during the holiday season when the mantle is decorated. I think I will make this standard going forward.
I’m please with how the project came together, as were my clients. It’s very gratifying to be told: “the piece exceeded our expectations”.
