What would you do with this off-centre fireplace?
Comments (63)HI Sarah I love what you have achieved. Many congrats for embracing what you have and creating something that totally enhances the placement of the fireplace. The space looks like it was made for the placement of that perfect chair and you've done a gorgeous job with your selection and placement of art . I am moving with considerable grief from my gorgeous arts and crafts bungalow to an early1970s small house. I have to say this style of architecture in NZ wasnt exactly a highlight. But I set myself a challange to embrace the architecture and look to enhance rather than fight it . That challenge shifted me off my despair track and now I am excited and hopeful and thinking about space and colour and the amazing light pouring in (a quality of houses of this time)..and textures . i feel so cteative in new and diffetent ways...and it's so exciting. seeing what you have achieved - it is very affirming for me I love what you have created....See MoreBedroom dilemma - lose the sink, fireplace, both or neither?

Comments (3)This is what I put in my fireplace, I know mine looks different and unfortunately the Wood Burner (It also uses coal) wasn't lit when I took the picture. If you look just at the opening you could definitely achieve this in your home. If you are going to go down the Wood Burner route then take measurements of the width x length off your room and they will give you the right heat output. Also take the height x depth x width off your opening. Good luck xxx...See More- 2 years ago
