Once red brick was too brash, answer..Paint! The finale to this room was not to simply disguise a no longer used fireplace, but to make the space work…just in a different way. A custom designed unit was built to complete the “meant to always be here” look [...]

Cradled deep…In hearts and souls….Listen now…For they be told…Remembered by…Both young and old.
