Week 2:
In this week, I draw the first floor; the exterior and
interior walls, doors, openings, windows and adding a fireplace.
The fireplace:
I added a fireplace to the Living Room using Mantel1
fireplace with masonry chimney-wall
Fireplace mantels can be the emphasis of tradition interior
decoration. It offers a unique opportunity to create a personal statement
unique to the room they are creating.
I picked fine wood mantel here. Though, the choice of
material for the mantel includes such rich materials as marble, limestone,
granite, or fine woods but the most luxurious of materials is marble. In the
past only the finest of rare colored and white marbles were used, but today
many of those fine materials are no longer available; however many other
beautiful materials can be found worldwide. Also, a mantel offers a unique
opportunity in its design for me to demonstrate the skill in carving each of
the fine decorative elements, such as moldings, brackets, figurines, animals,
fruits and vegetation are commonly used to decorate a mantel. it is the quality
of the carving that defines the quality of the mantel piece thus highlighting
the magnificence of the room.
