Built In 1949
Bathroom, Kitchen, Fireplace
This fireplace makeover was all about bringing more life, color, and personality into a space our clients use every single day. They spend so much time in their living room reading and hanging out that they wanted the fireplace to feel like a true reflection of their energy and style. It wasn’t about fixing something “wrong,” but about creating a focal point that felt joyful, warm, and entirely theirs.
Our Client's Vision
Fireplace Color Palette
For this fireplace, the vision was to build something artful and expressive…something that could hold its own in a room filled with books, stories, and everyday moments. We carried over the fish-scale tile shape from the bathroom but shifted the palette completely. Burnt sugar, amber, and sunstone tones were layered together to create a warm, glowing pattern that feels almost like movement across the surface.
The shape brings a playful softness, and the color mix adds richness and depth without feeling heavy. It’s bold but grounded and still at home in a midcentury house.
The Moonstone Effect
The final result is a fireplace that brings warmth, personality, and a beautiful sense of presence to the room.
Chose a fun and interesting tile shape to soften the overall look
Designed a pattern that adds movement and warmth, like a glowing ember effect
Updated the hearth tile for a cohesive finish
Let the fireplace become the room’s focal point without overwhelming the rest of the space
