ID DEBATE: THE MANTEL

The mantel… when designing homes for our clients, it really comes down to what fits best in their everyday life.

We love the traditional design of having a beautiful mirror or piece of art above a fireplace. Typically, the area surrounding a fireplace is a place for relaxing, reading,  and spending time with friends and loved ones. However, if television plays a big role in our clients day to day life,  placing a television over your mantle also serves it purpose well. Either way, we always make sure the clients needs are met.

KPI TIP: We often recommend clients use the Samsung Frame TV. That way, when the TV is off it will look like art. There are  a variety of real frames for the TV to really complete the look. Now that is the best of both worlds!
