A masculine study can be a sophisticated spot for work and play. To avoid the tired “men’s club” motif, design pro Jenny Keenan advises sticking with sculptural, modern furnishings and blending antiques with unexpected touches, such as Sisal Creative’s take on taxidermy. “A few whimsical elements make the whole concept feel fresh and energized,” she notes.



Jenny Keenan

Who she is: Interior designer and owner of Jenny Keenan Design

Where you‘ve seen her work: Keenan designed the interiors of The Spectator Hotel on State Street; her work has been featured in Coastal Living, Garden & Gun, and Southern Living.

Her top tip: “To make a space feel grounded but timely, try mixing new with old. For example, updated fabric from ZAK+FOX can balance an antique, like this screen from Fritz Porter.“
