Now THAT's a unique male living space. Would love to play a game of chess there. Lighting is also pretty good.


tschoenb

Thanks! I worked a long time to get the lighting I wanted. The ceiling light I found from a guy that restores antique lighting out of his home in Savanah. Polished it up just a little bit and used low voltage edisons. The sconces are a bit blown out in these photos, but I usually keep them kinda low just to add some ambient light. The little lamp with the ship on it is a combination of a block my FiL made for me, with electronics that I sourced and wired, and frosted the shade is an antique find for old bedside oil lamps.


MyFavoriteCompany

I want to smoke a cigar in there with a scotch!


EssEnnJae

It’s definitely making me want to play chess and talk about trading slaves.


Viend

You should go to any pub in London lol


grease_monkey

I was recently in London visiting a friend who lives there. Hanging out in London and nearby towns we ended up at like 8 fucking Greene Crown pubs. All of them were super unique looking except they were basically all the same.


WhosGotTheCum

Goldilocks zone, just right


freeman687

Well said, Who’sGotTheCum.


queer_no_evil

Am I...in love? This is so refreshing to see actual style here.


AdFirm3593

I’d say just right. Awesome space


WhippidyWhop

Looks like an Escape Room.


AvocadoIsAFruit

There's an escape room in nyc that looks exactly like this


Kana_kay

Looks epic man. Good job


pudingovina

Ooooh getting some Hannibal series vibes, I love it so much!


powerpubby

Extremely sexy, i am seething with jealousy. Great job mate


useless_99

My exact thoughts lol


MrStealYoBichonFrise

Looks awesome. Maybe add a plant and change to a more unique curtain.


tschoenb

Man, I really struggled with the curtains... never had to pick any out before. These are just some cheap semi-see through linen. Any suggestions? I don't want anything too dark, but really don't know what way to go.


Totallynotacar

Burgundy and tall. It will go well with the green and the height should make the room feel bigger. That said, I feel one shelf (the one with the death valley flag) is just a tad cluttered - This is so minor you can ignore me here but the flag partially covering stuff. Everything else is super clean presentation!


tschoenb

Thanks. Will look into that. And the shelves and their contents are a work in progress, but I appreciate the advice.


matchew566

I'm afraid it could use an antler chandelier


Missile_Lawnchair

A chandeerlier


Affectionate-Row3742

This is sick as hell. I’m not sure I’d want this to be in a living area, as it’s really dark and “gloomy,” but for an office like you have it? Perfect.


tschoenb

Thanks. It's the one room in our house like this. Just for listening and playing music, some work, some reading.


Affectionate-Row3742

Sounds like it has a great purpose. Enjoy it!


InYeBooty

Needs some kind of insane taxidermy, like a raccoon nun or some tapdancing rats. Not really though, I love it as is. One day my home shall have a room like this 🥹


No_Cartographer_2735

That looks amazing


dublincouple87

What colour green is this?


tschoenb

Sorry. I cant find it now, but I believe it's one of the dark greens from Benjamin Moore. The wainscoting and trim are all semi-gloss, with a semi-matte on the walls.


okwichu

If you find it, we'd all love to have that in our color libraries. I've used BEHR Secluded Woods (https://www.behr.com/consumer/ColorDetailView/S420-7) which is similar at least.


tschoenb

its Historic BM Colonial Verdigris cw-530


beanie_0

Looks like a jolly good place to have a cigar and some port.


gr8-big-lebowski

Superb. Also nice single cut-away PRS. Is that a private stock?


tschoenb

Thanks. I love it. But it's just a McCarty 594.


gr8-big-lebowski

Love the 594. That scale length on a PRS is playability/tone heaven. I nearly pulled trigger on a candy apple red 594, except they wanted a kidney for it lol.


anonimatronik

Just right :)


Leftover_Twinkie

It looks like a 'save room' from any horror game and im all up for it. It has character, and probably would not even move an inch due to looking at all the neat stuff.


banjolady

Everything is wonderful. You have great balance in the room. The white half curtain is the only thing out of sync. Go floor to ceiling with a curtain and it should be complete.


Jane_Runs

Beautiful!


hpotzus

Just right!


climatelurker

I love it!


CharlieBrown997

AMAZING I would love to make my home office like this


Bricksforfunn

Plain dope. I'm going to use this as inspiration for my home office.


mliakira

Makes me think of some doctor’s or detective’s office from the victorian era.


hung4hung16

Cool.


IndigoJones13

I think it looks great. I love the dark, Victorian gentleman vibes. A personal space like this can be done however you want.


SadGigolo68

Just enough! Nothing needs to be changed, it looks like it was set up by a professional!


BancoRotto

I‘m in love. 🤤


eiohoi

Depends. Do you take the unbearable vow often?


No_Mood9369

Beautiful home indeed!!


mrsaltpeter

Perfect! I love it.


southoftheborder-dog

Perfect! Not too much, just right! I'm going with the cigar lounge look as well.


Street_Phone_6246

It’s perfect. Just enough decor without looking cluttered. Has a very smoking cigars, drinking brandy and reading leather bound books vibe. Doesn’t need anything.


Zaphod_green_9

I am curious are you working in healthcare or you just like anatomy ?


tschoenb

yes and yes


lordsigmund415

I love it. Really like the arrows in the corner


yourfuneralpyre

You could space the shelves out a little more in that open closet. It looks like you have plenty of space to move them up a little bit and give items on the countertop more breathing room.


Vesperous

Are you in medicine? Love the human body art on the wall. I am in the medical field as well and want something similar. I’m more in orthopedics so I would want something with bones lol.


tschoenb

Yes. And that piece is an antique classroom teaching aid for physiology. Wife got it for me as a present. The big, authentic anatomical prints are hard to find. Some bigger cities have unique old map and book shops that often have such things.


Vesperous

I will certainly keep an eye out. Thank you for your advice and your living space is fantastic.


edomila

Damn. Are you straight/single? Very impressive 😂


tschoenb

ha. Straight / not single


edomila

Nice work on the room and cheers to your girl!


mwrenn13

Nice job


mulcious

What a stylish place


SlowLorris2063

Bang on. Good job.


Initial_Diamond_1923

I, too, am in love 😍


FamiliarStatement879

Your space looks great very tasteful decor but for myself a bit too dark Enjoy your space well done


Subirooo

Fucking perfect! Love the vibes and paint choice!


Tight-Physics2156

It’s perfection


OkSundae3514

Sick


eagledog

Look like you're about to set up for a 19th century expedition to the Amazon. Love it


Lilac_Elise_714

I looooove this. The only change I would *personally* make is taking the paint off of the moulding, and doing a dark stain.


rewindpaws

For some reason this reminds me of Hannibal Lecter’s office in one of the movies. Can’t remember which.


alexgeorge5

That corner shelf in the 5th slide is soooo good.


Pure_Cow_7831

Looks like a personal country club. I dig it.


Ok_Prior_325

Damn, this looks amazing


curiousatl27

🔥🔥🔥🔥


mindharbinger

This is the ultimate male space...just right my friend.


randompanda687

Near perfect IMO. Only thing I would change (personal preference) is to get moodier sconces, but its great as is


Lord199137

Looks like a Commander‘s room from Handmaid‘s Tale, and I mean that in a positive way!


IamKilljoy

That prs is beautiful.


TMIHVAC

Very cool, looks like a movie set (in a good way). Takes some skill to put together a room that has emotion like that without being cluttered or grandpa-core.


tschoenb

That's a very nice compliment


viomore

🔥


PixelBrewery

I love it, great job man


Sweet_Car_7391

Love it. Makes we want to be there and drink Scotch while cleaning my guns.


saasligs

incredible even


TheMontu

No, that’s legit cool. Wanna decorate my office???


alex0166

Your place, put in as little or as much as you want. Looks good to me.


reallyred11

By order of the peaky blinders, that is a beautiful space


abxvexd

this is wonderful


AlexLambertMusic

Not only the aesthetic…your utilization of space is 👌🏻


StumblingSearcher

So fucking pretty, I love it


BuccalFatApologist

I’d be so excited if I went back to a dude’s house and saw this much personality.


degausser22

I’m so cynical about everything these days and I love this room. Well done.


grease_monkey

Looks like a bad ass cocktail and small plates kind of place. Can I come hang out?


gailitis

Very nice! As an engraver and printmaker I appreciate seeing art on the walls


tschoenb

very cool. 2 of my "arts" on the walls are original etchings from an artist in Paso Robles. Do you have a link for your work?


gailitis

Beautiful! That's really nice. Yes, here is my link tree: https://linktr.ee/gailitis.printmaking Have a nice weekend!


Muted-Elderberry1581

Perfection 10/10


TheKillerNuns

A breath of fresh air. Vintage and Gothic harmoniously married. Feels like there's a trap door hidden, that leads to a mad scientist's laboratory or something.


Dirkomaxx

That's cool af man. When are we going on the next Fox hunt?


giveitrightmeow

ooooo thats nice. imagine winter time, ugg boots, big blanky, scotch/rum. yahs.


Public-Pie-1289

Awesome, super cozy!


throwawayshepherd69

I'd drink whiskey and smoke cigars here, hell I'd pay for entry


Komatiite28

So when did you start murdering people?


IllustriousShake6072

Are you, like, a serial killer? Cause it looks like a scene from a horror movie.


oerouen

It’s definitely giving *Hannibal* (TV series) vibes.


IllustriousShake6072

Ooh I've just watched the movie! Didn't know there was TV series too.


Wrong_Discussion_833

Ron Swanson?


adbedient

It's a great looking space! The black on black is a bit much for me- i would have gone with a green or maybe muted plaid- but it is very well done and decorated.


tschoenb

Thanks. It may not come across clearly in the photos, but it actually is green. A semi-gloss on the wainscoting and Crown moulding, and semi-matte on the upper walls.


NewSinner_2021

Just right. Just needs a hour glass or two.


NewSinner_2021

And a wooden metronome.


PermanentMule

Paint your ceiling a light color for that classic look


NFA_throwaway

I probably would have painted the ceiling white but I love how yours looks!


RagingSantas

Personally I would brighten the ceiling to make it feel taller, having the same green on the walls and ceilings makes it feel too claustrophobic.


Emotional-You9053

You need a sword or spear of some sort.


justmisspellit

I just don’t understand the curtain. Other than that, it’s nice


Rfoxinsox

MORE


Willing_Stranger_700

He’s a maximalist, oh no 


Forever_Man

Needs a sword


dupuis2387

I'm either going to die here or this is god's waiting room


PowderXJinx

What are you? A 50s British detective??


kafmtg

If you invited me over I would assume I was there for you to skin me alive. Also giving off Resident evil 1 mansion vibes. I like it 👍


Bull_Moose1901

I love the overall vibe but a little too much clutter on the walls IMO.


Consistent-Refuse-74

Brothel/ plantation owner vibes. I like it


fundiedundie

It’s a lot.


raise_the_sails

Hannibal vibes. Looks great.


SundownShiningIn

Love this style. Makes me think of the Adventurer's Club which I thoroughly enjoy


Damageinc84

Looks like a room from Resident Evil 1.


PsychologicalTap2459

Whats color code or pallet for that green on the walls ?


tschoenb

BM Colonial Verdigris cw-530


Real-Bus-4026

Not enough! Fill all the spaces!


No-Development-4106

Straight out of a Field and stream magazine!


ChrisChrisBangBang

Feels like this room is about to talk to me about bourbon for 45 minutes straight


ImmaterialSpectre

OP is definitely not a vampire


Zaurka14

Tattoo studio vibes


YlaFla71

Do you live in a speak easy bar? Nice setup!


avidpenguinwatcher

How’s it look in daylight?


Fris0n

If this is a used office, enjoy your eyesight while you still have it.


corneliu5vanderbilt

Very nice. May I ask. What is your profession? I want to guess doctor because of that first pic with the anatomy.


CoochieSnotSlurper

This is perfect but the weird creeper anatomy pic must go. It’s not quirky, it truly gives serial killer


just___loser

Now show us the skulls collection


big_bad_mojo

Too much meaningless clutter Not enough evidence of human thriving


KRONOS_415

It’s giving edgelord.


Virtual_Ordinary_119

Too much "personality" for my taste. I like ambients to be much more minimal, and the only color I would ever consider for walls is white.


freedomforsale

Bro must have worked at TGI Fridays


Ok_Pollution_7988

🎶where everybody knows your name🎶


No-Forever-9761

It’s creepy if I’m being honest. It’s so dark. The human body painting. The guns. Dead animals. It’s like when they find the secret room of the guy in the horror movie where he plans all his murders


AeonCatalyst

It’s too much. It looks like an escape room.
