Kare Design: 5 Tips To Style The Perfect Man Cave
Everyone needs a special place they can retreat to in order to unwind and refresh at home. Today, we bring you one for the men – a stylish, well-equipped and functional man cave to help you destress after a long day at the office.
1. Don’t skimp on comfy seating
Comfortable seating is a must in any well-appointed man cave! This is where you will put up your feet and enjoy some downtime, after all! So, we suggest investing in quality seating with added comfort. Choose materials that offer added padding or upholstery to make it all the cosier! A giant couch or armchairs are practical solutions for your space. If you have a bar or table present, then consider trendy bar stools or dining chairs in masculine upholstery like leather for a trendy ambience.
2. Create a cool bar area
The perfect cocktail hour can happen right at home, if you have access to a bar with all the accessories. A bar at home instantly means access to entertainment where you can invite guests over for a drink, or retreat alone and enjoy some quality time on your own with your favourite scotch! Mobile bars are quite nifty as you can move them around as you need them. Bigger, freestanding bars and bar counters are also worthy considerations to make the most of your space.
The Motorbike Bar from Kare Design is a statement piece! The best feature is the removable wine cooler, which protrudes from the engine block like a slanted cylinder. Aficionados will know which famous Italian motorbike brand it is alluding to here! Also, a brilliant eye-catcher that will attract guests in any space and add that special wow factor to your man cave!
3. Unique pieces
Give your man cave a signature look with cool furniture items and decor that adds a wow factor. Bring art and colour into your space and choose items that speak to your personality and style. Add texture with a rug underfoot and interesting upholstery choices to make the place feel more intimate and cosy.
4. Cool lighting
A man cave certainly deserves its own ambience. You can set the mood with ambient lighting and incorporate interesting fixtures to create a moody vibe. Top tip: Layer your lighting in the space to make the most of various zones. Add task lighting near a bar or drinks area and more moody. ambient lighting to highlight some of your favourite features like art or decor in this space.
5. Choose the perfect colour palette
In a man cave, you can definitely get away with dramatic colours to add definition. Moody, darker tones often work best here to create an alluring ambience that draws you in. Brushed metal accents, and honey-toned leather with pops of brighter colours like red, blue or navy can help you create a magical retreat.
