This custom fireplace remodel in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan was designed to create a quiet yet powerful focal point within the home — blending modern simplicity with timeless, architectural detail. At the heart of the space is a fully reimagined fireplace wrapped in hand-applied plaster, creating a seamless, sculptural finish that brings warmth, texture, and depth into the room. As part of this Bloomfield Hills fireplace renovation, we focused on clean lines, soft transitions, and intentional proportions. The fireplace surround was redesigned to feel integrated into the architecture of the home, rather than applied to it. The result is a minimalist fireplace design that still carries presence — subtle, refined, and grounded. The plaster finish plays a central role in the overall aesthetic. Using a hand-applied plaster technique, we created a soft, organic surface that shifts gently with the light throughout the day. Unlike traditional drywall or painted finishes, plaster adds a natural variation and depth that elevates the entire space. This type of plaster fireplace finish is increasingly popular in high-end home renovations across Bloomfield Hills and Oakland County for its ability to feel both modern and timeless. The extended hearth and integrated ledge provide both function and visual balance. Designed with a continuous, monolithic look, the surface allows for styling while maintaining the clean, uncluttered feel of the space. Every edge, return, and transition was carefully considered to ensure the fireplace feels intentional from every angle. This project also included custom built-in cabinetry surrounding the fireplace, finished in a soft neutral tone with warm brass hardware. The cabinetry adds storage and functionality while framing the fireplace and reinforcing it as the focal point of the room. Together, the plaster fireplace, built-ins, and architectural detailing create a cohesive feature wall that anchors the entire living space. As a design-build firm in Oakland County, we approach fireplace remodeling projects with both design intention and construction expertise.

This Bloomfield Hills fireplace remodel is a reflection of that process — where craftsmanship, materiality, and thoughtful design come together to create a space that feels both refined and livable. Fireplace remodeling in Bloomfield Hills is often about more than just updating a surround — it’s about rethinking how a space feels and functions. In this home, the transformation turned an underwhelming fireplace into a defining architectural feature that enhances the entire room. Whether it’s a full fireplace renovation, a plaster feature wall, or custom built-ins, projects like this highlight how intentional design can create impact without excess — proving that simplicity, when done well, is anything but basic.
