The ultimate bachelor pad? A reworked Brazilian apartment for 2 men - father & son - it avoids all the chrome & black leather man-cave cliches, but retains a distinctly masculine feel through use of timber, marble / ceramics and the exposed concrete in the walls and in the ceilings.
The concrete also contributes to the heating and cooling of space - its mass makes it slow to heat during the hot days, releasing the heat during the cooler nights. Beautiful and useful.
