WoW Factor by White Webb: The Fireplace

Wow Factor

7 Feb

Every fireplace begs for the perfect chair to snuggle into on those chilly winter nights. Here are a few ideas on what to sit on while warming those icy toes.

Wait in the Wings. With their embracing shape, wing chairs were originally designed to face the fireplace and envelope the sitter in the warmth of the blaze. Even though central heat may have made their function obsolete, their lasting beauty continues to make them a welcome addition to any fireside.

Bet on a Pair of Clubs. We love a pair of low-slung club chairs, squared off and facing each other in front of a clean-lined fireplace. With a single ottoman centered between the two, it is the perfect place to chat, read the paper and play footsies in front of the fire.

It’s a Small World. An armless child’s chair is always a nifty thing to have near the fireplace. It is easy to move and very handy for warming cold knees or stoking the fire from a low, seated position. Oh yes, and kids love them too!

Once you have the perfect chair and a roaring fire, don’t forget the cocoa!!

These vintage high back chairs needed a new chance These vintage high back chairs needed a new chance at life, and Milo Workroom was just the team to help make that happen! We reupholstered the pair with a small-scale patterned velvet and added contrasting buttons and piping for some extra pizazz.
Although we love to experiment with color, there a Although we love to experiment with color, there are times when basic black and white truly sings.  In this spa-like sanctuary in a client’s Los Angeles home, bookmatched Calacatta Paonazzo creates a soothing rhythm across the walls while Artistic Tile’s Stone Box porcelain tile anchors the space and exudes cool calm. ⁠
