Men inspired interiors are dynamic and forceful. They transmit a bunch of energy even though small budgets were released for designing them. This is exactly the case with the animated crib below, renovated in 2011 by the owner himself. As you can easily notice, the space looks airy and welcoming, and lots of decorative objects function as catching attention items. The living area – despite its small dimensions – attracts the guests with its extremely interesting lounge made of recycled pallets. Two tyres with a traffic sign above represent the coffee table, complemented by the huge drawing of a bicycle on the wall. So, the apartment of 35m2 renovated in 7 months has a lot of surprises to reveal. Explore it in the gallery below!

Men are explorers. A map in the dining area is what they want to admire while eating.

Lighting plays an essential role: you will discover lots of spots and electric bulbs, together with old recycled lamps.

A movie poster is what men call art. :-)

Next to the lounge, the working area was installed.

Everything is new in the apartment, excepting the kitchen, which was reconstructed, repainted and made functional. The owner made all the furniture, cabinetry, hard flooring, painting, graphics, electricity, and plumbing.

A blackboard in the kitchen gathers all the culinary ideas the owner wants to try daily.

The owner recycled an old lantern and made a bedroom lightning of it.

Men do not look for fancy closets: let it be wide and functional.

 Try it at home, too. An old gas lamp got a new electric equipment and lights again, and brush fixed on the wall makes the collision with the door very smooth.
