narrow family room with fireplace
Comments (7)I will try to see the layout numbers but this picture is very small print. One thing you have to consider, is "walkways" which take 3' min of space. So, you will have to select furniture sizing very carefully. How many people do you want to have seating every day? So, it is a tight space really. Probably need to look for "condo/apartment" size furniture. It looks like the room is approx. 15' wide and 17' long not counting walkways. So the width is really 11-12', so no huge sofas or sectionals will work especially with a fireplace. Is the TV in the best place? Could it go on the opposite wall? Might improve walkway situation?...See MoreFireplace redo in family room
Comments (18)Consider using a visualizer tool on a tile site to see what you may like. It's surprising how changing grout colors and layout makes a difference on the same tile. Arizona tile has a couple of fireplace walls in OTHER: https://justimagine.arizonatile.com/Default.aspx?_ga=2.123517643.1534067370.1583191193-1816866876.1583191193#/type/residential Tilebar allows you to upload your own photo: https://tilebar.com/features/roomvo I think a dark patterned tile could tie the fireplace surround to the TV without being too weighty,. Black and white might be too stark, but maybe deep dark blue or a charcoal that could read as dark blue since you have blue in the room. There was a Houzz article today about all the new blue tile tones. https://tilebar.com/paige-antracite-10-hexagon-matte-cement-look-porcelain-tile.html https://www.flooranddecor.com/porcelain-tile/marbella-polished-porcelain-mosaic-100609148.html https://tilebar.com/diesel-camp-blue-rock-4x12-ceramic-tile.html https://tilebar.com/angela-harris-inspira-oxide-12x24-porcelain-tile.html...See MoreHelp With Fireplace Wall in Family Room
Comments (2)I'm not sure what stretching the offset fireplace across the wall accomplishes. And tile doesn't seem like the correct material to use either. Why not keep the brick and paint it white and then build in shelves to the side in the same color? Doesn't have to be arched....See MoreFamily Room Fireplace - TV over fireplace or put in media center?
Comments (9)Another consideration is convenient seating directed toward tv viewing..close enough ..and with tv mounted low enough to view without having to lay “back” and lookup...to view...sometimes a challenge in a big...tall room...never mind when there are multiple windows allowing a lot of sun shining in your eyes for daytime viewing...See Moreoldbat2be
