The Front Room, or as we call it, the Mod

The Mod is coming along.  Our brown beams floating above were changed to white after realizing that striping them was going to be super labor intensive and putting glue lam over them was not going to look right.



You feel like a bird perched way up high on the scaffolding. That, or a tightrope walker.



We are also getting ready to cover the fireplace with burned wood called:

Shou-Sugi-Ban--

Type it in on Houzz if you're wanting to see pictures right away.  It will be a while before we get ours up.

I did need to stretch a quart of black paint over the wood face to account for the places that the wood did not cover.

You can kind of see some paint on the side of the brick.  We're toying with the idea to paint the brick.  It just leads into so much more that I am downing it, but I may have to compromise.
