The project goal was to integrate a new outdoor wood-burning fireplace and exterior television with an existing patio and pergola. The design solution centered the new fireplace on the existing space with an integrated wood storage box. The fireplace is the focal point from the patio and any view within the house. The existing wood pergola was retrofitted to be structurally tied to the masonry of the fireplace. New access was created to bring guests to the backyard via a flagstone stepper path and stone footbridge winding through an existing plantbed.
