Creating a seamless flow in an open-concept space is all about the details! ✨
Because this living room and kitchen flow directly into one another, we wanted to ensure the design felt intentionally connected. Here is how we brought the two spaces together around this fireplace:
Cohesive Tile: We carried the same beautiful backsplash tile used in the kitchen over to the fireplace surround to unify the rooms.
Scaled-Up Mantel: We designed a new, simpler mantel that brings a much larger, more grounded sense of scale to the wall.
Stunning Hearth: We finished it all off with a custom, honed Jet Mist granite hearth to anchor the design.
When removing walls, thoughtful material connections are the secret to making an open floor plan feel truly unified.
