Open to suggestions!

Our house has a really cool two-way fireplace. I like the tile that is on one side, but the other side looks like this:

The mantle is made of concrete and it has some lovely details:

I don't like the brown. I would like to paint this mantle a different color. I was thinking of going to a light color- ivory maybe? But what should I do with the inner section that is painted black? Do I paint it, too? Same color? Different color? (fyi- we will be painting the area above the mantle, also.)

Can you help? I would love some suggestions!!! Thanks!
