This is a serene outdoor patio area with a modern design and clean lines. The main feature is a built-in fireplace with a rectangular opening, surrounded by white stone or marble cladding. The fire is lit, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Around the fireplace, there is a sunken seating area with built-in benches featuring warm accent lighting underneath. The patio floor is covered with large, neutral-toned tiles, giving a sleek look. Potted and in-ground cacti, along with other low-maintenance plants, add greenery and a bit of a desert-like vibe to the space. The fencing provides an open view of the neighborhood in the background, and the sky has soft pink and purple tones, indicating dusk or dawn, adding to the peaceful ambiance.

The living room, as shown in the Before photo, started out as a small rectangular area facing a plain fireplace. The view beyond is stunning, and so the design of the room and the enhancement of the fireplace and window treatments were designed to enhance and frame the breathtaking view of San Diego Bay. The first objective was to enhance the appearance of the fireplace with an old world flavor. It was decided to cover the wooden top with stone, as well as the facade. The fireplace is given depth and texture by adding stone trim and molding. The result is a dramatic improvement in the ambiance of the room. The custom furniture was scaled to fit the room. The area rug was also custom designed to add a splash of color. Lighting fixtures were changed, and beautiful drapery panels with Roman valances complete the room without obstructing the view. An ottoman serves dual purposes as a footrest and coffee table. Carefully chosen lamps and accessories complete the warm look the clients wanted.

This family in Chatham has been an integral piece of our business development. We took great pleasure in constructing this bluestone patio for them. We used all blue bluestone tiles, all sized the same and laid in a herringbone pattern. The sitting walls were faced with cultured stone veneer and capped with 2" bluestone treads. The custom rectangular fireplace is all gas and has an auto-start control box concealed on the side. The lava rock and blue glass pebbles give the fireplace a cool and modern feel. We had the fireplace and curved sitting wall tops custom cut to achieve the perfect fit. We installed LED strip lighting below the sitting wall caps to provide night lighting. The built-in grill station received a Soho Grey quartz counters. The finished product is a beautiful and modern outdoor living space. We wish this amazing family a lot of good times using it and want to thank them for everything they've done for us! #GreatWorkForGreatPeople

This beautiful custom cut fireplace is made with Woodside natural stone veneer from the Quarry Mill. The stone has been cut on all four sides by the mason on site.Woodside is a castle rock style natural thin stone veneer that consists of several rectangular sizes with squared and random edges. The stone is a natural granite with a beautiful weathered finish. From almost peachy beiges with subtle marbling to much darker browns, Woodside offers versatility to blend with your homes decor. Woodside is a great choice when creating a staggered layout that still looks natural. The individual pieces of thin stone veneer range in height from 4″-12″. Due to the larger sizes of the pieces this stone works great on large scale exterior projects. Castle rock style stones like Woodside are almost always installed with a mortar joint between the pieces of stone.

The newly renovated living room. A wall bump out was added over the onyx stone fireplace and hearth. A large painting is lit by a suspended directional spotlight. The ceiling chandelier is a salvage/restored piece. The back wall originally held an arched top window and two quarter arch corner windows. The wall was re-framed to accommodate the new, rectangular door/window pattern seen here. The french doors are 9' tall, with a large picture window between them. Transom windows across the top repeat the size and rhythm of the doors and windows below them. The doorways flanking the fireplace were enlarged and raised.
