Father's Day is around the corner, and it is the perfect time to celebrate the men in our lives and create a space that truly reflects their personality and style. Whether you're looking to update your own space or create a special retreat for the father figure in your life, here are some ideas for creating masculine interiors in every room of the house.
• ENTRANCES •
The entrance to a home sets the tone for the rest of the space, so it's important to make a strong first impression. A dark, rich wood console table paired with a statement lighting fixture is a great way to create a welcoming and masculine entrance. Add a few personal touches, like a collection of vintage globes or a stack of books, to make the space feel like a true reflection of the homeowner's personality.
• KITCHENS •
Kitchens are often the heart of the home, and adding masculine touches can help create a warm and inviting space. Consider using dark, moody colours on the walls and cabinets, like navy blue or forest green, to create a rich and sophisticated atmosphere. Adding industrial-style lighting fixtures, like oversized pendant lights, can help add to the masculine vibe. For a more traditional look, try using natural materials like wood and stone for the countertops and backsplash.
• LOUNGE ROOMS •
Lounge rooms are a great place to incorporating masculine touches into the decor. A plush leather sofa in a rich brown or navy blue hue is a great starting point. Add in some industrial-style coffee tables, like a reclaimed wood and metal piece, and mix in a variety of textures, like chunky knit throws and a shag rug, for added warmth and comfort.
• DINING ROOMS •
Dining rooms feature a blend of strength, sophistication, and comfort, creating an environment that reflects a bold aesthetic. Deep hues complemented by natural materials like polished wood, leather, and metal. The furniture selection typically includes robust dining tables made from reclaimed wood or sleek metal frameworks, accompanied by sturdy, yet stylish chairs that provide both comfort and a sense of presence within the space.
• BEDROOMS •
Bedrooms should be a place of relaxation and retreat, and incorporating masculine touches can help create a sense of calm and tranquility. Consider using a dark, rich colour on the walls, like a deep navy blue or charcoal grey, to create a sense of intimacy and coziness. Use natural materials like wood and leather for the furniture, and incorporate textures like a plush rug or a soft, woollen blanket for added warmth.
• BATHROOMS •
Bathrooms can be a great place to incorporate masculine touches, especially when it comes to materials and fixtures. Consider using natural stone or concrete for the countertops and floors, and consider using a matte black finish on the faucets and hardware for a modern and sophisticated look. Add some greenery, like a snake plant or a fiddle-leaf fig, for added texture and colour.
• HOME OFFICES •
Home offices should be a space that inspires productivity and creativity, and masculine touches can help create a focused and efficient environment. Consider using a dark, moody colour on the walls, to create a sense of focus and concentration. Use natural materials like wood and leather for the furniture, and incorporate textures and a curated art collection for a personalised touch.
