“It’s tricky balancing fire and views,” says Emily Rylander of @andreacochranlandscape. “You want to put people in one direction, but they want to gather around the flame. For this house in Pebble Beach, CA., Rylander placed a linear feature between guests and the Pacific Ocean, preserving the view in a way that a round or square structure wouldn’t. The Pacific is gorgeous but also dark, stormy, and cold. If fog creeps in, a gas fire in a split-faced limestone trough helps battle the chill.
