    I would assume you used poplar for the construction. Looks great.

    Great job, I think my favorite design element is the panels on the bottom that run the full length of your built ins. Outstanding - thanks for sharing. Dave

    Outstanding! The design and workmanship is top notch. Great results. This is a huge improvement, and should really provide a high return on investment for the home owners. Thanks for sharing before and after photos too.

    Yup. The right choice for painted work (in the northeast, anyway).
    And... thanks everybody, for the kind words...

    You got me. I don't understand why they inadvertently chop off some width when it becomes an article.
    The regular listing has the shots at full width. Frustrating...

    1. I totally agree that it was an uninteresting wall.
    2. The end result is stunning, a great example of your workmanship, and something to be especially proud of.

    I really love the continuous hearth and the moulding on it. It just ties everything in. Did you ever consider leaving some of the brick exposed during the design phase? I'm glad you didn't. Good call, and excellent design.
