Dear Alice | Interior Design

Fireplaces | Mantels, Materials, and More


Listen Later

Today’s episode is all about fireplaces and comes from a listener question we received, which asks “With regard to the cast concrete mantel that is often discussed, could you confirm whether this is just the top shelf of the fireplace, or the whole of the fireplace? And is it pre-colored, painted, stained, or left concrete gray?” Listen as we go into detail about the various aspects of a fireplace and getting the best design, making the right choices along your design journey.

  • “If you do the custom fire box, you need yourself a nice big chimney to allow the fire power, oxygen, all of the ventilation. The bigger the fire box, the bigger the chimney, the more chimney pots. This is gonna give your house a really awesome, estate-like look, and it really does have to vent out the chimney.” 17:30
