Why we love it
With masculine appeal and classic sensibility, this refined living room is fit for any stylish bachelor. The space has an industrial edge thanks to a raw mix of metals and a minimalist design, but it still feels homey and comfortable because of its warm, friendly colour scheme and rich natural textures.

Why it works
Thanks to the neutral palette, the layering of different materials in the room doesn’t feel too busy or haphazard. The space features metallic finishes, which risk feeling cold, but set against the cowhide rug, textured grasscloth walls and carvedwood sidechair they feel inviting and luxurious.
