The masculine bath can be achieved with ease and be enjoyed by men and women alike. Savvy Home Blog had some fantastic images that capture the essence of this look and offer a glimpse into an aesthetic that works in both traditional and contemporary homes. At the end of the day all bathrooms need to be functional, however the masculine bath offers a unique mixture of warmer tones and rich finishes.
Naturally every bathroom needs proper lighting. The masculine bathroom should have stylish wall lights and bright overhead lights for grooming and the all-important shave. No man wants to walk out the door in the morning with little nicks and toilet paper bits stuck to their neck! If you have good overall lighting, try placing darker colored shades to sconces to infuse the space with a touch of James Bond mystery.
It’s also key to have a great framed mirror. Try using a leather framed mirror or handsome wood version in deep walnut or burl wood. I will admit it, men love to read in the loo, so the addition of small benches or tables are a welcome relief for that stack of magazines, papers or books. Is the secret out?
1. The Jamie Young Leather Strap Round Wall Mirror captures the rugged look of western decor.
2. Instead of the standard flush mount light why not try the Bradford Oiled Bronze Pendant.
3. Robert Abbey Porter Metal Shade Wall Sconce echoes style from the Great Gatsby.
4. The dark finish and industrial lines of the Bruno Collection Scissor Arm Pharmacy Plug-In Wall Light are a great alternative to traditional sconces.
5. The Oxenberg Gray Linen Burlap X Stool would be perfect for a stack of crisp white towels.
6. Classic accessories like shaving mugs and candles would look great on the Philipus Gilded Gold Round Accent Table.
