Building a bachelor pad is the dream of many young men getting their first start in the big city, but finding a means of making a masculine living area is a lot harder than it sounds. Interior designers Parrish Chilcoat and Joe Lucas recently revamped a home for a 29-year-old professional hockey player with recurring themes that could work for many men out there, according to HouseBeautiful.com.

First and foremost, a man's living area should be tailored to entertaining and hosting all of his buddies, so make sure that seating is never in short supply. A small sectional in tandem with a apartment sofa and a matching ottoman is an ideal arrangement that will provide plenty of places to sit, and one can add a tray onto the ottoman to turn it into a de facto coffee table.

The designers suggest using gray paint color and small furniture when designing a living room. Since many new appliances use this hue, amateur designers can create a streamlined arrangement that's still relaxed and casual.
