Dear blogfriends,
Today's post shows how to include masculine elements in an interior.
Those elements can be used either to balance a room with lots of feminine elements (pinks, curbs, lace, mirrors, etc.) or used combined with other masculine elements or neutrals to create a space with lots of testosterone.
1. Leather sofas
Leather sofas are a very good example of masculine elements.
Mixed with feminine elements (round tables, rug with hint of pink) like in the room below, it creates a very balanced space.

But used with (almost exclusively) other masculine elements, it creates a very warm, strong and masculine space.

2. Mid-century pieces
Mid-century furniture has straight and clean lines (no ornaments and curbs). I think it's why I love this style so much!
You can style a mid-century console will never look toooo girly (even surounded by golden peonies!!!)

Tweed, velvet, flanel...
4. Subway Tiles
I know subway tiles are not so specifically masculine. However, it really makes those spaces very masculine (especially mixed with these velvet stools below) :

5. Strong Animals
It's sounds cliché but kittens are for nurseries, beautiful and gracious birds for woman and buffalos and crocodiles for men.
