Style Guide
Decorating a Texas Ranch Home
From the entryway to the front porch, a room-by-room guide to decorating a Texas ranch home with the warmth and character it deserves.
Texas ranch style starts with restraint. Pick a palette — warm whites, walnut, leather, sage, copper — and let it carry through every room.
Anchor each room with one substantial piece: a leather sofa in the living room, a solid wood dining table in the dining room, a four-poster bed in the master.
Layer textures generously. Cowhide on wood floors. Linen on leather. Copper against stone. The depth is what makes the style feel authentic.
Mind the lighting. Wrought iron chandeliers, Edison bulbs, copper lamps, and lots of warm-temperature bulbs. Cool light kills ranch warmth instantly.
Leave room to breathe. The biggest mistake in Texas ranch decorating is over-filling. Let each piece have its space.
