Just in case you’re wondering,

Man caves are to men what shoe closets and warm baths are to women…

Here’s a list of things for the ideal mancave to give him that “place of peace”

1. Theme/Decor
2. Comfortable seating
3. Stress relievers
4. Seclusion

He wants to feel like he’s in an oasis all his own. He wants to be able to have peace and quiet and if he decides to blast his games, music, or movies, he doesn’t want to have to worry about being told/asked to turn it down. Ultimately, he wants to relax his way.

Theme:

Whether a literary lover, athletic enthusiast, or an artsy soul, the comfort and privacy of the mancave will add a tremendous amount of peace of mind if it fits his personality!

Let it look like, smell like, feel like his space.

• Video games (and surround sound)

The Ergonomic design has full back support, and the foldable construction allows for ease of storage and portability.

• Music (and surround sound), Movies, other Artistic Releases

Stage the area with a record player, stock up on some vinyl and don’t forget the surround sound.  Don’t forget the soundbar and dock for his ipod/Android music player when he want to be new-age. The more boom, the better!

Check into large flat-screen tv’s or even try a projector for the flexibility of having as large or as small of a screen as he wants!

High pixels and lumens are the way to go! Pay for the quality of a great picture! For tips on how to choose a home projector for your home theater, try Tips. We highly recommend this ViewSonic PJD5155 3300 Lumens SVGA HDMI Projector, right at $300 great picture for the cost. Great value.

If he is more hands-on, stage an easel, add paint/sketch materials, or a poetry pad; position his musical instruments and let him express himself as artistically as he sees fit.

• Gym equipment or Tools

If he’s one for multi-tasking, this Wirk Ride Exercise Bike Workstation and Standing Desk allows him to cycle and use his laptop/tablet or other device on the mounted desk. All for under $150.

Maybe a rack of weights, a bench and a long mirror might do the trick.  Better yet, a drillpress, carpenter’s table saw, socket wrenches or whatever else gets his gears turning. Fill up the space with things that make him feel fulfilled.

Either way, let it fit him.

Seclusion

Give a man privacy, give a man peace. Let him have his “me-time”, “guy-time”, or just “time” period.

No matter the person, everyone enjoys being in their element. Consider a few of these ideas to start building a mancave or tweak the one you own.

For all the positivity he adds to your life, allow him serenity

Peace of Mind for All
