How to create that bold and contemporary bachelor pad look that will reflect a stylish and charismatic nature

Although a common thought is that interior design usually falls to the women there is nothing more appealing than a man who understands and appreciates interior fashion and has the ability to execute it perfectly in the home.

It is not to say that there aren't many men out there that are a dab hand at interior design and could give any women a run for her money when it comes to knowing what goes and what looks good in any given home, this is more geared towards the average Jo' man, the man that describes Turquoise as blue or a Chaise longue as a sofa! In this case the key is to keep it simple but effective so as not to stray into to unknown territory.

Firstly choose one colour and make sure it's a bold one, preferably a primary or secondary colour ie: Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Green, and Purple. This will be your accent colour, by this we mean it should not be used in mass as this can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing, instead we use a bold colour in small quantities to lift or add a bit of punch to the decor so it doesn't look flat, unexciting and washed out.

Depending on how daring you are the accent colour can be used in your sofas, occasional chairs and dining chairs or if the idea of owning a purple sofa scares the living daylights out of you then you can just stick to using this colour in your sofa cushions, curtains, artwork, home accessories and kitchen utensils. Introducing this burst of colour allows you to keep your furniture quite simple and therefore timeless so all you really need to do in the future if you get bored is change your accent colour.

Simplistic designs in your furniture only compliment your accent colour pieces further. The Geo-Glass range of coffee tables have some sleek contemporary designs that are perfect for this purpose, most especially the smoked glass range as these are a great contrast to accent colours. Side tables or nests are also great pieces to own as they are compact in design so don't intrude on a decor but offer more surface space.

If you can include some iconic reproduction designs in your home then all the better for it as this instantly conjures up thoughts of this man knows his designer classics'. The Barcelona Lounge chair or the Charles Eames Lounger are both instantly recognisable pieces as well as the Marble Base Arco lamps, all understated classics that shout out I know style'.

By keeping the furniture pieces simple it means you can experiment with your accessories and lighting to create texture and warmth in the room. The funky Cherry Picker Lamps are great for adding a little character to a room and the 30 Light Squiggle Chandelier is a perfect addition for adding a little texture to your decor.

So there you have it a relatively simple way to transform your home into a funky, stylish bachelor pad that instantly says you're a man who knows what looks good and appreciates modern contemporary design.
