CUSTOM BRICK FIREPLACE WITH BUILTINS

This living room was thoughtfully transformed by removing the existing cabinetry and opening up the space with large picture windows. The fireplace was surfaced with reclaimed brick veneers from Boston and a reclaimed wood beam was installed for the mantle. The built-ins were uniquely designed with window seats and bookcases to add character. The small details of this design create beauty and function: a cabinet door was added to the lower portion of the bookcases to create a backrest for the window seats, the bookcases were set back from the bench seats for proper scale from the doorframe and the custom bench cushions were designed to wrap the side of the bookcase so prevent an awkward gap, the upper portion of the fireplace is set back to allow a deeper mantle ledge that is not too visually protruding, the lower cabinet doors were sized for easy access and cremone bolts were added for charm.
