Welcome to the Ultimate West Village bachelor pad. This place screams C.B.G.B. rocker lifestyle; heavy on the black with plenty of exposed industrial beams, brick and just enough woodland-sy, deer antlered, whiskey swigging accents to round off the entirely masculine vibe...and you just know the apartment only ever looks this clean on photo-shoot day...

...excellent mixture of grays, serious blacks, and natural wood tones...

...conveys a mood of antique eclecticism while maintaining masculinity...

...its the non-store bought individualistic items that give a place character...

...it wouldn't be a bachelor's pad without a closet devoted entirely to booze...

...the kitchen space maintains the same unique aesthetic...

...towel rack!? thats for pansy city-slickers, just use dead animal antlers...

...somehow they've managed to bring the Adirondacks to the City...
...without making it look too "Disney-Magic"...
The home of veteran fashion photographer Carter Smith, this place takes the stereotypical bachelor's pad and gives it a heightened sense of ....well, "refined scruffy-ness". Its sort of the professional Hipster look you often see young 30 somethings undertaking when they realize they've the money to burn and an appearance [hygiene] to maintain...Apart from having an inspiring pad, Smith also seems to be a damned good photographer to boot. Just take a look at some of his past works...

...Lily Cole. Potentially the source of the antler / bathroom idea...

...The Chicest of strolls through Washington Square Park...

...ok, now we're just getting into Hippie territory here...
rustic...woodsy, I'm thinking Smith likes that...

...Just a silly ad for Zara, but its very Cartier Bresson-esque...
