Do bathrooms have a gender? Should they? Depending on the inhabitants of a home and their design aesthetic, any room can have a gender leaning. We’re not taking sides because we feel good design should be bigger than just one thing. However, we have seen some products that clearly seem to think of themselves as having a decidedly more masculine appeal, in an absolutely gorgeous, take-no-prisoners way. If you feel like playing the gender card, there are many wonderful ways to say, ‘welcome to the men’s room,’ all are welcome.

If you want to add something entirely unexpected to a room, take a look at the elegant hand-crafted iron Cesto light from Corbett Lighting. It’s a completely updated and unique take on a basket-weave design – both solid-looking yet seemingly light as a feather. The oval open-weave lets all the available light shine through. Contemporary without being precious, this collection suits many different decors.

The leather theater and leather bar/pool chairs also bring the man cave’s decor to a new level, and a new price point when compared with some of the other designs in this post. Here is another man cave where the focus centers around the pool table:

Over the past few years Man Caves have been becoming more and more popular. If you don’t know already, Man Caves are places designed for the married man or family man as a place to have their space, decor and design. A Man Cave can be found in an addition, basement or even in a garage and have a number of styles whether it be the simple garage with a mini bar and T.V. or an elaborate basement redesign with all the amenities such as a pool table, dart board and full size bar. Here are a few things you can use to take your Man Cave to the next level this winter.
