Pat’s Vanilla Bean Stone Fireplace Surround
Pat Webb updated the living room with a Vanilla Bean stone fireplace surround using GenStone panels. The stacked stone design frames the fireplace and extends up the vaulted wall, creating a dramatic focal point that anchors the entire space. The soft blend of cream, tan, and subtle brown tones in the Vanilla Bean color palette complements the light walls and warm wood flooring while adding texture and depth to the room.
Fireplace surrounds are a natural place to introduce stone because they draw the eye and help define the living area. In this project, the tall accent wall follows the angle of the vaulted ceiling, allowing the stacked stone pattern to emphasize the room’s height and architectural lines. The result is a feature wall that feels built into the home rather than added later.
GenStone’s lightweight panels made it easy to install the stone surround without the weight and labor of traditional masonry. Panels can be trimmed to fit cleanly around the firebox and along angled ceilings for a seamless look.
