We had a great time with this design and style. Entry has Tuscan Cast Panels to set off the Iron door and really make it stand out, brake up the stone and give the entry just what it needed.
We changed the levels of the stone to keep from having horizontal line accross the front. I really like how it steps up toward the entry until the stone is full height at the front center.
You have to love the cedar T&G ceilings in the porches. We felt like black would be just to dark and even thought the stone and stucco looks white it is not and a white aluminum would have looked really white and out of place. Cedar, natural color, was just the ticket.
We added some black scuppers and round downspouts to bring in some bling to the front.
We kept just enough stone in the back to break up the stucco. The stucco is our own custom off white with a fine aggregate finish. No trim bands keeps it nice and clean.
Bringing the outside in with this fireplace. We did a little different stacking of the stone inside and the solid stone hearth makes this a focus in the family room.
