The Rich Ranch Trend:
Why We Can’t Get Enough of It

Have you heard of the Rich Ranch trend? If you haven’t, it’s time to get acquainted because this style is everywhere in 2025, and we’re completely obsessed. Think Ralph Lauren meets Yellowstone meets classic western glam. It’s all about effortless luxury—where rugged, timeworn elements meet refined, curated interiors.

There’s something deeply nostalgic about the Rich Ranch aesthetic. It channels the charm of a well-loved saddle, the history of reclaimed wood, and the warmth of heirloom textiles, all while feeling incredibly fresh. It’s luxurious, yes—but never pretentious. Instead, it’s a lived-in, well-traveled kind of beauty, filled with pieces that feel like they’ve been passed down through generations, even if they’re brand new.

Where Would We Design a Rich Ranch Home?

If we could take this aesthetic anywhere, where would it be? We dream of designing homes in some of the most breathtaking landscapes—places where this aesthetic feels right at home. Maybe it’s a Montana lodge nestled in the mountains, a New Mexico adobe steeped in history, or a Wyoming retreat overlooking endless open skies.

While Western-inspired interiors have been around for decades, Rich Ranch is the more polished, elevated version of the look. It’s not just about cowboy hats and horseshoes—it’s about embracing organic materiality, layering textures, and creating spaces that feel both grand and grounded.

Imagine a living room with a worn leather sofa, soft wool kilim rugs, dark-stained wood furniture, and walls finished in smooth plaster or earthy limestone. Add in vintage silver accessories, handwoven textiles, and a touch of equestrian influence, and you have the essence of Rich Ranch. It’s a perfect balance of masculine and feminine, rugged and refined. Need some visuals to really nail in on this trend? Take a look at our Pinterest Board dedicated to this vibe.

Why Is Everyone Obsessed with This Look?

There’s a reason why Rich Ranch is trending—it speaks to a desire for spaces that feel warm, lived-in, and full of character. We’ve seen a major shift toward interiors that feel personal and storied, rather than overly curated and minimalist. Rich Ranch delivers on that, offering an aesthetic that feels casual and approachable while still embracing an elevated, designer-worthy feel.

A big part of this trend’s appeal is its connection to nature. Materials like limestone, reclaimed wood, and terracotta bring a sense of organic warmth, while vintage textiles and handcrafted details make spaces feel layered and rich. It’s a return to interiors that prioritize craftsmanship over fast trends—a movement we can all get behind!

How to Get the Rich Ranch Look in Your Home

The best part about Rich Ranch? You don’t need an actual ranch to make it work. Whether you live in a city apartment, a suburban home, or a countryside retreat, this trend is surprisingly adaptable. Here’s how to bring it into your space:

1. Start with a Warm, Earthy Color Palette

Rich Ranch interiors are all about warmth—think rich browns, deep reds, warm neutrals, and touches of black for contrast. The goal is to create an inviting, cozy atmosphere that feels like a retreat.

2. Incorporate Natural Materials

This is a trend that thrives on organic textures. Reclaimed wood beams, stone fireplaces, leather furniture, wool rugs, and linen upholstery all play a key role in creating that lived-in, timeless feel. Avoid anything too shiny or modern—patina is your best friend here.

3. Layer in Western-Inspired Textiles

This is where the fun really starts. Handwoven kilims, Navajo-inspired prints, vintage wool blankets, and intricate embroidery all add depth and authenticity to the look. Use them on your floors, furniture, and even walls to bring in that rich, layered feel.

4. Balance Rustic with Refined

One of the key differences between classic Western decor and Rich Ranch is the element of refinement. While you want those rustic touches, they should be paired with more polished pieces—think sleek lighting, antique silver accents, or elegant drapery to soften the space.

5. Mix Old and New

The best Rich Ranch interiors feel collected over time. Vintage finds, antique furniture, and artisanal pieces give a space that “always been there” charm. Look for heirloom-quality furniture, estate-sale silver, and well-loved leather pieces to mix in with new decor.

Is Rich Ranch Controversial?

Like many rustic design styles, the Rich Ranch aesthetic can stir up some debate. Historically, Western-inspired interiors have leaned heavily on fur, taxidermy, and trophy hunting elements—but there are plenty of ways to achieve the look without these more controversial components.

I recommend swapping out real furs for high-quality faux alternatives, and tons of antlers! 

Rich Ranch in Fashion—Because It’s All Connected

I always say that fashion and interiors are deeply intertwined—one always influences the other. And lately, I’ve been seeing the Rich Ranch aesthetic all over fashion, too.

Think vintage denim, buttery suede jackets, concho belts, and Western boots—but styled in a way that feels fresh and modern, not costume-y. The same way this trend pulls from the past but refines it for today, it’s happening in closets too. 

Bozeman Ranch-Inspired Wardrobe Mood Board A Western-inspired fashion board featuring a fringe suede jacket, denim button-down shirt, feminine white blouse with a ruffled collar, and a selection of footwear including black leather mule boots and studded pointed-toe heels. Accessories include a turquoise beaded necklace, a brass concho belt, and a structured shearling pouch, perfect for channeling an elevated yet relaxed ranch aesthetic.

If you love that classic Western-meets-luxury aesthetic in fashion, you’ll probably love it in interiors too. The crossover between equestrian elegance, Americana nostalgia, and effortless layering makes it feel so right.

20k. Wow. Feeling a little surreal over here (and right before Christmas!). Emma surprised me with this cake today and it honestly made me pause and take it all in. This journey has been nothing without you all (this community) showing up, supporting, growing with me. I’m so grateful for every message, interaction, and tiny bit of love along the way.
And I’ll be honest... it’s not always easy showing up here every day and sharing so many pieces of our lives. You don’t see everything, and that’s okay. But what’s real is this connection and the people on the other side of the screen.
Here’s to all of you. Thank you for being here, for cheering us on, and for making this space feel like something worth building.❤️
After designing and remodeling so many bathrooms, here are 5 mistakes I’ll never make again:
1. Stopping tile too low on the wall.
Tiling only part way up can make a bathroom feel choppy and visually shorter. Taking tile higher (or all the way up in key areas) instantly feels more custom and elevates even the smallest space.
2. Choosing form over storage.
A pretty pedestal sink with nowhere to hide anything... I’ve learned my lesson. Vanities with drawers, medicine cabinets, and smart niches keep your counters clear and make your bathroom actually livable. For example, pretty pedestal sinks have my heart — but they have zero secrets. If you truly love the look, add a tailored sink skirt to hide essentials, or do what we’re doing in our own project: bringing in an entire wall of IKEA PAX built-ins for overflow storage. Desianers think hard about lifestyle... because a beautiful bathroom that doesn’t actually work never stays beautiful.
3. Using the wrong grout color.
Bright white grout on a busy floor or in a shower is a cleaning nightmare. A softer, mid-tone grout is more forgiving, ages better, and lets the tile shine instead of the lines.
4. Cheap, overly shiny hardware and fixtures.
Nothing dates a bathroom faster than ultra-shiny, lightweight hardware. A tip I give clients: always look for weight and finish depth. Polished nickel with a warm undertone, unlacquered brass that patinas beautifully, or even aged bronze instantly elevates a space. Spend once and avoid upgrading again in two years.
5. Relying only on overhead lighting.
One can light = harsh, flat, unflattering. Layered lighting changes everything. Add sconces at face level (ladies... this is a game changer for getting ready), plus a decorative fixture or even a candle for a softer, moodier feel.
If you’re planning a remodel or want help avoiding these mistakes in your own home, send me a DM — we’d love to help you design a bathroom you’ll love for years🤍
“Designers are expensive.” That’s the public opinion... and sometimes, it’s true. But it’s also the reason we exist. 
A designer’s fee is almost always less than the cost of redoing things that weren’t done right the first time.
We see it all the time. Clients come to us after plans are finalized, materials are ordered, and the space is already under construction. By then, it’s much harder (and more expensive) to course-correct. Details like lighting placement, ceiling heights, tile layout, and even outlet locations all impact the final design. And when we’re part of the process early, those decisions work together instead of against each other.
Working with a designer isn’t just about how your home looks.. It’s about how it feels and functions. Our role is to bridge the gap between vision and execution, to make sure every decision supports the next one.
If you’re in the early stages of building or renovating, this is your sign to bring design in from the start. It’s an investment in doing it once, and doing it beautifully.

Headed back to Oregon today and scrolling through old Christmas clips like the nostalgic, obsessed person that I am.😂 It truly never fails to be the coziest place during the holidays.
We chose the PNW this year partly for the peaceful vibes... partly because our renovation is unhinged right now. And MOSTLY because I wanted to put up a tree. 
Luckily we have a fake one in storage. No ornaments, just twinkle lights and vibes. I’ve got a few simple tricks to make it feel special for our family.
Where are you celebrating this year? Traveling? Staying home? I love hearing what this season looks like for everyone.
Until then, I’ll just be on the Tennessee backroads with my coffee, gathering design inspo from every pretty home I drive past!
