Boys Club

The new House Beautiful landed in my mailbox this week, and it's full of super inspiring images.  This Hermosa Beach bachelor pad was one of my favorites.  It's pretty awesome.










 




 









I love homes that are beautiful and easy to live in.  This one definitely fits that criteria.  You had me at black, six-pane dutch door entryway with glass lanterns!  Love the endless yards of fabric that frame the windows, the cushy velvet sofa, that blue kitchen.  And, I love the giant elk antlers at the base of the stairs (so amazing).   Doesn't it seem like you could move right in?  It's so chic without trying too hard.

The designers had a fun tip in regards to throw pillows on the sofa: three to five pillows is enough-- a few should coordinate, the last one should be totally off.
