Jeff Doubét Talks About – A Special Spanish Chimney Cap in Seville Spain
“Hey guys, I wanted to continue my love affair with… (chuckles) Spanish chimney details and add to my blog posts that highlight these very important architectural details when designing Spanish style homes in Santa Barbara, California!
This particular one… I actually shot in Seville, Spain. A client of mine and I were over there, for about 10 days tooling around various cities, including Barcelona, Seville, Madrid… we went over to Mallorca (the island) to snoop around.
But this one (chimney cap) was in Seville. And, what caught my eye about this one was the plaster base, that you know… anybody could probably build something like this- if you put your mind to it.
But, a lot of people don’t think about what could I do creatively and uniquely to make my project stand out, So, I thought I would share this image… (I’ve) got many more to share in the future, but this one caught my eye because of the terra-cotta clay tiles that they installed through the midsection of this…. what I call a “doghouse style” chimney cap.
So, from my past experience building these things- I can imagine that the main chimney was built first, and you know nice and sturdy- probably with brick. And then this cap looks to be pretty heavy. It’s probably made out of concrete. But the midsection, the terra-cotta color is thin terra-cotta tiles that they’ve clad to the outside of that structure.
The pyramid shape on top. My guess is it was cast concrete (?) and lifted into place- but that’s just my speculation. But, as I continue this series, I just thought I’d share a bunch of different ideas with you over time. And, also add to my photo collection so that you can tool through. You could easily type in “chimneys” or “chimney details” into my search bar, and find a lot of the other blog posts that I’ve written on it.
I will also share a direct link, so that it makes it a lot easier for you. So, I thought I’d keep it short and sweet today, and hope you keep coming back to see what I’m brewin’ up next.
I have no idea, but tomorrow is Sunday and I’ll be starting some more ideas for the week. Have a great weekend.”
