Categories: Single Family Residential, Artistic Use of Masonry

Address: Owner keep interior private

Year: Calgary

Date Completed: July 26, 2021


Tyndall Stone is a uniquely Canadian stone that makes this fireplace stand out from many others. The stones are precision-cut to ensure perfect joint spacing between each course, resulting in incredibly crisp lines with an ashlar pattern of installation. The floor-to-ceiling fireplace, wrapped around corners into the floating shelves, is stunning and captures the eye. The solid, one-piece hearth stone in front ties the fireplace’s overall appearance together, making it a commanding focal point in the Great Room. This remarkable natural stone is full of hidden sights, such as little fossils, waiting to be discovered, making it the perfect place to create wonderful memories.
