Man Caves

One of my favorite websites, "The Art of Manliness" did an exposé of sorts regarding the rooms that a few famous, historical, culture-changing men built for themselves to escape to and release their creativity in. Either that or take a nap in.

Be sure to head over to The Art of Manliness and read the whole article–it offers some interesting insights into the lives of some pretty inspiring people.

Here are some of the "man-caves" that I really like:

Andrew Carnegie's Study

Thomas Edison's Library

Ernest Hemingway's Writing Studio

Theodore Roosevelt's Trophy Room

Mark Twain's Writing Hut
