Happy Friday friends,

You’ve heard me say many times before how much I love blogging. But, time is always a challenge. When the good folks of Arcadian Lighting approached me about guest blogging, I launched at the opportunity. Since this is the first guest post on Design Magnifique’s blog, I had a little reservation. I’m giving it a shot and will probably explore the possibilities of more guest posts.

Listen up to what Jessica has to say about Masculine Interior Design.

Hi everyone! I’m Jessica from Arcadian Lighting, a blog and website where I get to write about the latest interior design trends and all the beautiful lighting fixtures that go with them. I’m delighted to be guest posting today on Design Magnifique. Today, I’d like to share a collection of interiors with a more masculine edge. Simple decor, earthy colors and rustic textures are some of the wonderfully handsome features of a more manly design aesthetic. I hope you find these rooms as inspiring as I do!

The rugged, industrial feel of this space is decidedly masculine and casual. The factory windows add a serious, studio atmosphere.

The rich, dark color palette of this living room is perfectly rustic and masculine. Plenty of red accents and natural materials keep the space warm and inviting.

This simple, modern hotel room is certainly no-fuss and no-frills. A soft glowing table lamp gives the room a dark, yet cozy atmosphere.

The dark and heavy furniture in this bedroom transform an all-white canvas into a grounded, practical space. The worn leather accents have a very masculine charm.

The brilliant blue wall color gives this living room depth and tranquility. The vintage map and cozy armchair are perfectly handsome features.

The black and white colors in this living room is perfectly balanced. The paint splash artwork and metal sculpture add movement and energy to a monochrome color palette.

The stark contrast between light and dark in this kitchen is bold and sophisticated. A sparkling pendant light makes the room come to life.

So many intricate patterns and textures make this handsome vignette complex and compelling. Reflective, fish-eye mirrors add extra depth and visual interest.
