The Man Cave!

You’ve been to a couple of those fancy home tours and just salivated. Your wife takes a close look at the trendy kitchen decor, but your attention is focused squarely on what you saw in the basement – what is commonly referred to as the Man Cave!

The Man Cave is the man’s domain (yes, we do understand we claim it as ours, but family members are welcomed)! It’s the place where he can just chill out and unwind, watch some sports, catch a movie, listen to some rockin’ music, play some poker and spend some time with the guys.

As with other parts of the home, the possibilities are vast for creating a Man Cave that reflects your individual personality and tastes. Some men like to indulge with bar areas stocked with top-shelf spirits, while others would rather use their space for a pool table and a couple of high-def televisions.

Two things you should keep in mind when you start thinking about your Man Cave are your budget and the amount of space that you have. Write down on paper everything that you want to do with your Man Cave area. One good way to start the process of designing your man cave is to pick an object that you like — whether an Indianapolis Colts pool table or a jukebox that plays 50s music. This object can set the tone for the overall look and feel of your Man Cave.

Whatever object you choose to start with, your Man Cave should be an expression of your interests. If you’re a football fan, make liberal use of NFL or college memorabilia; if you’re a movie buff, line the walls with posters from classic movies. And then furnish your Man Cave according to the theme you’ve established. If you’re going with the football look, invest in an entertainment center with surround sound and a large, comfy couch where your buddies can sit for the big game.
