A Fluted Fireplace Surround Is A Central Feature In The Living Room Of This House In New York

Barker Associates Architecture Office has designed the interiors of an 1860s townhouse in Brooklyn, New York, where the inclusion of a fluted fireplace surround in the living room caught our eye.

The centerpiece of the living room has been crafted from plaster, and the sculptural curved design adds a textural element to the room. The fireplace which travels the full height of the living room, also connects to low built-in shelves on either side, while highlighted art is showcased on the wall, and a plant adds a touch of nature.

The rest of the house includes arched openings, a large kitchen with a marble island and a butler’s pantry, steel-framed doors, a library and office with original moldings and fireplaces. Let’s take a look around…
