Creating a Man Cave Even a Girl Could Love

 

I just completed my most recent ideabook for Houzz.  Since our own house has been all abuzz with basketball lately, I decided to put together a list of fun products that I might use if I were decorating a designated man room. . .It’s fun to dream, right? 

 

 

 

Gordon Tufted Sofa

 

 

One of the items I included was this navy Chesterfield sofa.  It’s just $999 (and a loveseat option is available, as well).  A similar version first caught my eye in this month’s Country Living.  I just liked the whole feel of this room:

 

Country Living

This is definitely not a man cave, but isn’t it a great, collected space?

 

Check out my ideabook here.

  4. I loved that space in Country Living. Chesterfield sofas are one of my favorites and would work great in a 'man' cave! And it is definitely basketball central around here too! :)

  5. When I saw that couch the other day, I was literally trying to think of where I could squeeze it in my tiny house. Love that find!

  6. Gorgeous! Very masculine, but tasteful and elegant enough for us 'womens' to love! :)

  9. I saw that sofa on the front cover of Home Decorators recently too. I was really wishing they offered it in other colors-could you imagine that in a cream?

  10. There is nothing I love more than a well worn leather chesterfield. It's somehow uber-masculine and effortless at the same time. Great post.

  12. I am so glad to see this picture. My husband received a very expensive blue leather recliner as a gift from his grandparents when we married 12 years ago. He won't part with it, and I've never felt it fit with the rest of our neutral furniture. This aces me feel better about the blue being ok with the otherwise neutral room.

  13. Emily,
    I was literally just telling one of my clients about this sofa and matching chairs and then I saw them on your posting. I agree! Good price and great looking! We must be soul sisters....

  15. Really a great space! Love the sofa and recently came across the same sofa in an antiqued black leather, so wish I could've brought it home. The men in our live do love those sofas!

  16. I don't think man spaces are highlighted enough so I'm very happy to see your idea book! And I love that Chesterfield sofa - it's handsome and sexy all at the same time. Man spaces can be good looking which is what your photo proves - hopping over to browse your idea book too.

  17. My friend bought a chesterfield almost identical to this one on Craigslist for a steal. Lucky girl. That room is gorgeous, though you're right, not very manly.
