Traditional Living Room, Milwaukee

Route holes were below drawers allow for fireplace air vent; this detail was mirrored on the other side and became a design detail. Hidden within the custom cabinetry is a 42" flat screen, which can be pulled forward on a pivoting track; the pocket doors recess back into the cabinet to allow for easier viewing. 3/4" pre-finished cherry floors replaced orignal carpeting Custom built-in cabinets were created to look like armoires, which adds a subtle sense of elegance. This replaced the existing drywall cubbies . Cambria was used on hearth and surround, which was also used on the island in the kitchen (not seen). The hearth was raised from floor-level so it could be viewed and enjoyed from the kitchen and surrounding areas. A space above the fireplace was framed out for a picture or holiday wreath.
