FIREPLACE Before & After: from Transitional to MidCentury Modern

9 years ago

AFTER (scroll down for "BEFORE" pic):

BEFORE:


It's hard to believe it's the same room, but it is! It was a lovely Cape Cod style home with lots of moldings and traditional details, but the family wanted a bright Mid-Century Modern style home. I love how it turned out!

    Thanks for the awesome comments! Here is the entire room "AFTER" pic...I wish I had the same angle in the "BEFORE" pic (scroll down). The subtle improvements drastically changed the look of the room by simply removing the moldings and trim work, replacing the traditional fireplace with a modern custom fireplace surround (which I LOVE!). We kept the existing wood floors, and as much as I wanted to replace the windows (to clear, undivided glass), we kept the existing windows (sans the frames) for budgetary purposes. We intend to add floor-to-ceiling modern drapery panels down the road.

    Verona Home Design-- the wood is actually built up in front of the fireplace...it projects about an inch in front, returns on the sides. The new dimensionally grooved tile surround is set behind the wood. I am so pleased how it turned out. Thanks for all the love everyone!
