Working from a local designer’s plans, we built this striking Custom Fireplace Media Wall for a busy family in Seattle’s Queen Anne neighborhood, turning an ordinary living room into a warm, functional family hub.

The focal point is a sleek tile surround with a perfectly inset niche that frames the wall-mounted TV, keeping everything clean and intentional. Flanking the fireplace are rich mahogany custom storage cabinets—tailored on both sides for discreet media storage while adding beautiful warmth and texture.

To the right, we installed a madrone butcher block bar, the perfect spot for the kids to pull up stools after school and spread out their homework while staying close to the family action.

From the custom millwork to the thoughtful details, this Queen Anne fireplace media wall proves that smart, family-friendly design can look this good.
