Gooseneck Barn Lights for a Luxurious Gentleman’s Retreat

gooseneck_barn_lighting.jpg

While the words “man cave” conjure up images of neon signs, a 60″ plasma screen tv, and a keg in the corner, a gentleman’s retreat sounds much more genteel, elegant, yet still relaxing in a manly sort of way.

Industrial chic decor translates the heavy duty, rustic, and ergonomical objects found in factories into functional and stylish pieces for every room in the house. Start with a neutral foundation, like this Almsted rug from IKEA then add fun embellishments. Metal baskets like the perforated metal baskets, and wire baskets are practical means of storage without sacrificing design. Two industrial essentials are the Bordeaux Tin Wall Clock and the Wilcox Studio Light. These accessories look like they are fresh from the factory floor!

The lake and tiny town of the same name had a burst of popularity shortly after the release in 1987 of “Dirty Dancing” starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey in a coming-of-age drama filmed on location in Lake Lure.
