Tie a Room to your Fireplace
You can use veneer to tie in a section of your ordinary wall around your fireplace to match your hearth. You will see this used in many modern homes to give a visual appearance of the fireplace dominating the room, while leaving visual space untouched.
Shielding Wood Stoves
