After we completed the remodel on the interior fireplace the client mentioned replacing a lakeside stacked stone fire pit with a different stacked stone. I suggested instead that we keep with the clean feel of the interior fireplace and use stucco to buildout a whole patio area. Since this photo was taken a tile patio has been laid in the the same concrete tile used in the master bath. The fire pit area is now used for outdoor lounging, roasting marshmallows, with the addition of a pizza oven and the electrical outlets that were incorporated I have even seen a big screen television out there on game night.
