How To Create a Western Interior Design

Western design has an iconic style as rich as the old West.  It is big, bold, and unmistakable.  No longer limited to ranches and the Southwest, Western design is becoming popular in homes around the world.  Looking to create a Western style room in your home?  Here are a few ways to utilize the key elements of Western interior design.
Solid Wood Furniture – Western style is centered on natural elements, especially solid wood furniture.  Choose pieces that are hand carved from pine, alder wood, or reclaimed barn wood.  Large statement pieces are a great way to show a Western influence.

Cowhide accents – Add a cowhide rug or cowhide furniture to a room for an iconic Western design.  Remember that not all cowhide is created equal.  Brazilian hair-on cowhide is the finest quality, and provides the most durability.  El Paso Saddleblanket works only with top tanneries, creating the finest quality Brazilian cowhide furniture and rugs available.  Premium cowhide provides the best investment in your decor.
