Choose the Perfect Space in Your Home

Any man cave begins with picking the perfect space in the home. For those who have basements, a man cave often works well in these spaces, as it will feel separate from the rest of the home. If you don’t have a basement, something like an extra bedroom, a living room, or even a study can work well.

How About the Color Palette?

The color palette will also be a big factor in creating the space as this creates the atmosphere and will help you choose décor, furniture, and flooring. In general, these man caves tend to take on a darker more luxe feel, so it’s common to see rich brown, navy, black, tans, deep burgundy, and green used. In terms of metal touches, brass has that traditional pub feel.

Invest in a Collection of Beer Steins

Of course, if you’re going to have any sort of bar in your man cave, beer steins are an absolute must. You may even want to look into having a personalized beer stein made, or a collection of them. Beer steins are just a classic feature, and the perfect way to enjoy a cold one. Because they are such classic items, you may also want to include some sort of display shelf or wall where they can be stored and act as décor at the same time.

What About Entertainment?

Because you want to be able to spend a fair amount of time in the man cave, and likely use it for entertaining, you’ll want to think about what to include in terms of entertainment. Things such as a big-screen TV with a surround sound system, some sort of video game console, a pool table, a foosball table, or even a poker table can all be great options for a man cave. Clearly, the amount of available space and your budget will be determining factors.

Focus on Comfy Manly Furniture Pieces

In terms of the furniture, comfy manly pieces tend to work well in these spaces. This can include leather or suede covered furniture, club chairs, streamline couches or oversized sectionals, and stools. Also read: Things to do Before Lockdown Ends
