Southwest Living Room

Southwest Style Makes Versatile Home Decor

The images of the American southwest—desert landscapes, intricate Native American patterns, aged pottery and turquoise jewels—can be wonderfully versatile in a rustic room. Southwest styles can be austere and wistfully beautiful, cozy and homey, or even chic and elegant. In varying combinations, they can create very different—but equally gorgeous—looks.

Wall Tapestries with Frontier Spirit

The whole point of tapestries is to lend a note of artistry and interest to a room. Because they’re textured and stand apart from the wall, they really stand out in your décor scheme, so they have a lot of potential to make a splash. And tapestries with a western or Americana theme can be particularly good for your outdoor-friendly décor.

Western details make a room complete.

A Western Transformation for Your Living Room

Depending on how large an area one wants to “westernize” and how deeply into the look they wish to go, you can choose from large items such as sofas, chairs, coffee tables, end tables, and bar stools or from smaller items. Western décor is easier to mix and match than some other styles so it is easy to start small and add as one goes along, without fear of items clashing with each other. Small details can double as conversation pieces. Wall hangings that picture cowboys, Native American themes or natural images can be in the form of advertising signs, prints, paintings or metal art. Other items are game chests, storage benches, clocks and light switch covers.
