A western home celebrates all that we hold dear in the West: a view of the beautiful landscape, using natural materials and honoring the spirit of colors and textures we see around us. Of course, not all Western-styled homes look alike, but many share similar qualities and design style. Here are some stunning examples of homes that celebrate the equally stunning American West from Porch.

The Native American styled bedding, leather armchair and rugged wood lend texture help keep this bedroom cozy during the winter months.

Elements of nature are everywhere, from the branch stool to the river rock hearth; this home embraces the spirit of the West and makes it work with eclectic touches.

Add the textures of animal hide and natural log walls, and you have an elegant and comfortable place to dine.

This home shows that functionality can be beautiful, especially if you stick to raw materials. The stone used on the bottom of the façade is perfect for high snows that drift next to the home. The wood planking, grayed naturally, has a warm and durable appearance. The corrugated metal roof, untreated so that rust forms naturally, was built at a steep pitch to allow for snow run off.

A massive stone fireplace is a sure sign you’re living in a Western-style home. The large size of this fireplace is well-balanced with the double-height ceiling, wide hearth, and sturdy mantel. Natural light filters through the oversized windows, taking advantage of the Western beauty outside.

This stone fireplace highlights the outdoor life of these homeowners. Taxidermy over the mantle, along with a fishing rod and basket, are warmed up with small, amber lamps. The large antler chandelier is the perfect scale for this space, and overstuffed furniture encourages guests to relax by the fireplace.
