It conjures up images of mismatched sofas, overstuffed armchairs and comically over-proportioned television sets clustered into a lightless room with a sub-standard approach to hygiene. Essentially, the man cave is an interior design term that refers to the absence of interior design.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">But we&#8217;re here to address that syllogism. In an effort to correct against the perception that masculinity and thoughtful, refined interior design cannot co-exist, we&#8217;ve rounded up a gallery of 25 images that prove just the opposite. We&#8217;ve dubbed it the &#8220;Gentleman&#8217;s Cave.&#8221; The below spaces \u2014 which range from contemporary to traditional, and belong to men as diverse as James Bond and Norman Mailer \u2014 exemplify the qualities of our favorite men: strength, warmth, elegance and style.
