Transitional Craftsman designs have become a staple in the Pacific Northwest. White Birch Honed helps us achieve this by blending the classic natural warmth of stone with contemporary edges, says designer Dylan Cloyd of the recent designs he has been creating for customers. His latest project pairs Realstone White Birch Honed with polished dark grey granite fireplace surround. The pairing of the textured and smooth surfaces as well as the contrast in colors create a focal point for the large living room. This contemporary stone fireplace is an absolute show-stopper and a favorite space in the house for the home owners.
