Where is your man cave going to be?

The first question is most important. Where is your man cave going to be? In a shed outside? Attic, basement or maybe the garage? This is important because it states the work you have to put in. If you want to create a nice and comfortable man cave. You don’t want to be too cold or too hot. So, if you’re going to build your man cave in a shed, it’s probably going to be really cold in winter. That’s when you need to think about isolating and all sorts of things. This has a little bit of a price tag compared to a room that’s already isolated. So, think about that.

What’s the purpose of your man cave?

The purpose of your man cave is basically to make you happy and feel relaxed. However, you want to build around that thought. So, what will make you happy?

Are you going to decorate yourself?

What is your statement piece?

But if you have a shed that you want to transform into your jungle paradise. A wood fired hot tub (Dutch: houtgestookte hottub) or a blow up bubble bath (Dutch: opblaasbaar bubbelbad) should be the statement piece. But of course, there can be many other things.
If you ask yourself these questions, we’re sure you’re going to have the best man cave you could ever wish for. And don’t forget: a man cave is a place where you can relax. So, it’s all about you.
