A floor-to-ceiling quartzite surround built out on cement board, so the stone reads as one continuous face.

Stacked stone looks best when it looks structural, so we built the surround out proud of the wall on cement board and set the ledgestone dry-jointed from the hearth up. The firebox opening was framed first, and every course was cut on site rather than bought pre-cut. A simple oak mantel keeps the eye on the stone.
