Inglenook in the Blue Bedroom of Stan Hywet Hall, Summit County, Ohio. An inglenook or chimney corner is a recess that adjoins a fireplace.

[1] [2] The inglenook originated as a partially enclosed hearth area, appended to a larger room.
Inglenook fireplaces were a development. One side of the inglenook was a transverse wall, one of the others was the exterior wall which was pierced with a little 'fire window' that gave light.
