15. Moody Charcoal and Leather Sanctuary
Create a sophisticated, masculine-leaning retreat by wrapping your living room in deep, moody tones. Paint the walls a rich, matte charcoal grey or a deep forest green, creating an intimate, cocoon-like atmosphere. Contrast these dark walls with a rich caramel or cognac leather sofa that will develop a beautiful patina over time. Introduce metallic highlights through polished chrome or brushed brass floor lamps and hardware to keep the space from feeling too dark. A plush, dark wool rug and abstract expressionist art with bold brushstrokes will complete this luxurious, moody sanctuary.
