Male interior

Have you ever thought about what exactly the “masculine” interior differs from the “feminine” one? And why, for example, women try so hard to decorate their apartments, while men, on the contrary, avoid even a hint of the appearance of unnecessary elements and decor details?

It is clear that lately such a division is more than conditional, because many girls like brutal interiors, in which strength and masculinity are felt. But some men, on the contrary, feel quite comfortable in an apartment furnished by a skilled mistress.

However, hunters by nature, men feel the desire for open spaces. This means that one of the most important principles of a male interior is more space and a minimum of clutter!

Yes, yes, it is very important for the strong half of humanity not only to move freely within their territory, but also to exercise control without being distracted by unnecessary details. And if a woman looks depressingly at, say, an empty window sill or shelf, dreaming of placing cute trinkets there, then a man, on the contrary, will be proud and enjoy free horizontal planes and maximum comfort.

When choosing a palette for a living room, it is worth focusing on natural shades: coffee, sand, olive, gray and, of course, black. Muted purple shades, indigo, terracotta and burgundy will emphasize the brutality of the room.

Think black shades are very boring and gloomy? Not at all! When handled skillfully, black can help emphasize the seriousness and elegance of a room.

If a creative masculine nature asks for bright colors (sometimes it happens), then you can choose a warm red, emerald or cherry shade as contrasting accents.

Parquet or natural stone can be laid on the floor. And, by the way, brickwork on one wall will look good and, as a continuation of the idea, laconic wooden furniture and dense curtains.

Most men do not bother with a separate kitchen and allocate a small area in their apartment for cooking and eating food (or even arrange a kitchen set along one wall).

The kitchen area is equipped with a traditional set of built-in appliances, a refrigerator, a microwave oven and, of course, a coffee maker. In addition, you can choose a beautiful tabletop, a spectacular bar counter and equally spectacular bar stools. Men love to impress guests too!

If, nevertheless, a separate kitchen-dining room is provided in the apartment, then it should be decorated in the spirit of brutality: straight lines, the absence of smoothed corners and unnecessary bends, the rough texture of the finish, the dim light of a floor lamp, sconce or hidden lighting.

By the way, many respectable gentlemen try to give preference to wood trim and furniture, not forgetting about leather upholstery, which further emphasizes the respectability of the owner.

Men usually approach the arrangement of a recreation area in a very businesslike manner. It is understandable, because it is in this room that the strong half of humanity will be able to completely relax and restore their strength.

Typically, for the design of a men’s bedroom, designers choose dark tones and muted shades. However, in recent years, interiors of men’s bedrooms, made in light white colors, are gaining more and more popularity.

As for textures, you can use wood, metal, glass, brickwork, stone, leather and other materials that will reflect the social status or even the preferences of the owner.

By the way, although men love folding sofas for their practicality, they prefer to see large comfortable beds in their room, which will not need to be assembled and disassembled every time. We agree, this is very convenient!

A wardrobe or wardrobe, a TV, as well as a bar with your favorite drinks, have recently increasingly fit into the interior of a modern men’s bedroom.

Psychologists also advise to equip men in their room with a kind of workshop. They argue that working with your hands helps the strong half of humanity to relieve stress and get rid of irritation. In addition, if the crafts turn out to be ingenious, then they can be put on public display and enjoy the compliments of family and friends.

The bathroom, of course, should also look like a man, but this does not exclude the fact that it will be stylish and comfortable.

Here, too, it is important to adhere to minimalism and give preference to a shower stall, but without a pallet, a large mirror without a frame, as well as modern plumbing. It is also worth sticking to simple shapes, clear lines and free horizontal surfaces, which, by the way, will help to visually increase the space in the bathroom.

The male interior rather assumes brutality and the absence of additional decorations, but this does not mean at all that the strong half of humanity is alien to the desire to decorate their premises. As a rule, more attention is paid to items related to hobbies (travel, sports, music, etc.), or to technical innovations and gadgets. In general, everything that our men are so proud of.

It is noteworthy that, for example, men are reluctant to give preference to such an object as a chandelier, but a lamp, and even an ultra-modern shape, will surely delight the owner of the apartment.

By the way, another misconception is that usually there is no place for plants in a strict men’s room, only women usually decorate their apartments with flowers. However, it is not! Many representatives of the stronger sex believe that living plants purify the air and make even the most ordinary bachelor’s den cozy.

In any case, you should choose those accessories and decor elements that will reflect the main idea of ​​the interior, as well as emphasize the brutality and strong-willed character of the owner of the apartment.
