The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he's always doing both. James A. Michener

Family Room Fireplace, Walls & Moulding
This remodel included the crown moulding, fireplace and walls. The main feature, Fireplace, was given a rustic italian plaster look which went well with the room's decor.
This is before a fauxed finish was completed.


Also included in this work, was a Customized Finish for the Mantel, to create a look for an european old world feel.
***************
This is the completed look!

The finalized look included a fresh color for the ceiling, walls, and glazed & foiled look for the crown moulding as well.
******************************************************************
Before -
This fireplace was a basic poured concrete finish. Since the area behind the concrete was painted, the fireplace blended with the wall.
After -
With the artful application of specialized faux finishing products by Faux Effects, a distressed limestone finish was accomplished. The walled area behind the stone, was also distressed with the finish which allow the fireplace to hold a strong focal point in the room.
