Your fireplace is awesome. Make it really stand out with a warm darker wall color, go as dark as you are comfortable with.

Thanks Linda. I think it will take some getting used too!

I also really like it. If you want to soften it a bit, just pick a warmer tone from whatever pallette you choose (i.e., a browner grey rather than a bluer one) -- try to go quite a bit darker or quite a bit lighter than the average of the stone (current color just a bit close).

Thanks. Good advice. The stone is still drying. May take a couple of days and it will be lighter.

It is nice fireplace.I remember one artist, his style simple and full mysterious dream,just match your place. http://fineartamerica.com/featured/wisteria-dreams-a-robert-malcom.html Also,take your time to my website,the sleep lion also can bring your home more soft ,warm feeling.（●＾o＾●） http://fineartamerica.com/products/sleep-lion-jieming-wang-art-print.html

Some reclaimed wood floating shelves, I love combining organic or rustic materials to balance out hard and shiny surfaces.

Scones on either side or tall table lamps on either side on small stool will add softness & interesting lighting effect as well....

I agree. May add glass coffee table as neutral sectional

wall art & floor lamp from pier1.com...
the wall art picks the colour of ottoman &
the grill of the artwork does not fully block the beautiful fireplace stone.
The floor lamp twist adds well to the textural richness of the place...

note: the scale of the artwork & lamp is just approximate in image

May I ask what is the stone you have used ...it is beautiful & so is your furniture

Thanks. The picture doesn't do the fireplace justice. There is a little sealant on the middle tiles that makes it not look flush. I also wiped it all down and now that it's clean it looks better.

Thanks for all your advice. I'll check out pier one imports for the picture. Is the lamp from there also?

The stone is actually concrete slabs for patios. I hope it doesn't look medieval???

Yes the lamp is also from pier1...
The wall art though has medieval flair will suit
Your colour palette...
& all that matters is your liking....
Check the other wall art they have...
If anything appeals to you...
Could check if that will fit well in your space...

I really like both the wall art & lamp suggested before...
here are other options for you though....
the wall art need to have a lot going yet subtle to keep visual interest...

few lamps... one has a magazine rack & thought worth the buck...
the other little crystal attraction...

Also an other thought...out of context may be ...
Your computer desk could probably fit better else where...
may be pic of the other wall may help...

Yes the computer and desk are going once we decide on a sectional!!

How about some arched iron large mirrors on each side that look like windows with even an antique finish on the mirror part. Uttermost Website has some awesome ones. May make the room look even bigger Take a look at these On the website

I like the fireplace...really interesting...

A thought...a beautiful looking 3 seater couch could complete your club chair set...
instead of a sectional...

Glass coffee table may be....
Definitely weigh your priorities..
Good luck

Tricia - could you let me know the supplier and model for that fireplace? It is beautiful!!

Thanks,

Andy
