Coastal styling on an internal fireplace

Adding a cool limestone fireplace for a tropical holiday home

With Coolum random ashlar limestone walling, this fireplace sits perfectly within the tropical environment and flowing spaces of this open plan home. Installed ungrouted, the Coolum walling reflects the dynamic tropical surrounds yet keeps a relaxed tone with its soft sandy, white palette.

your fireplace design starts here

Whether you decide to create a large scale outdoor fireplace for alfresco dining all year round or a clean, modern fireplace that is the central focus for your interior living room, finishing detail is key.

 One of the most important considerations is how your fireplace design will be finished. We think it’s always best to find solutions that make the fireplace appear as if it’s a solid structure and part of the built environment, rather than a veneer wall. This means thinking about capping and corner detail. Does your fireplace run into a wall or will it be free-standing? What natural stone tiles or stone cladding will best suit the colours or textures of your home? 

 Whether it’s an outside fireplace or one inside the home, it’s essential to consider these elements before you finalise your choice of stone cladding.
