Many single modern guys opt for designing a man cave with cool and stylish masculine interiors. A masculine interior isn’t only about dark colors and gloomy décor, it can be airy, light and modern but with cool man-like touches that make up the room.  Today I’d like to show you how to complement a masculine bedroom with a cool proper headboard or even give a neutral interior a man-like look. So, let’s get started!

Fabric Masculine Headboards

Fabric is the most popular material for designing a headboard, it’s comfy and looks cozy, whether it’s a soft headboard or a wooden one covered with fabric.  Choosing a type of fabric, consider that it’s a man bedroom, so give preference to black, grey of all shades, brown and other colors that match your bedroom décor; the best patterns are tartan and striped. tartan masculine headboard

Tufted Masculine Headboards

Tufted headboards are also traditional and comfy in using, they may be fabric or leather, the latter is easier to clean but easier to spoil also. black tufted masculine headboard

Leather Masculine Headboards

Industrial and modern masculine bedrooms strive for cool leather headboards without any tufting. A metal or wooden headboard covered with leather of different colors looks incredibly sexy! tufted leather masculine headboard

Wooden Masculine Headboards

You can easily craft one yourself using some old wood or even driftwood. You may also buy new wood and give it a weathered or barn wood look using the tutorials here. simple wooden masculine headboard
