Fireplaces and House Design

This fireplace is part of an Arts & Crafts farmhouse in rural Pennsylvania. The masonry chimney seems to float between two sheets of glass, and the firebox is backed with a piece of fireproof (oven) glass. Here, we emphasize the contrast between solid masonry and transparent glass, and also bring nature into the home. Imagine sitting by the warm fire on a cold winters day and watching the snow fall.
