All Dressed Up: Western Style

Who says that a home office has to be dull and boring? If you love a sport, a hobby, or in this case, a state: Texas, there’s no reason your home office can’t reflect that passion. This western-themed office reflects its owner’s love of Texas and matches his design taste and personality, perfectly.

The cabinets flanking the credenza behind the desk feature iron bars instead of solid doors. In the middle of each door is a Texas star. Open cabinets aren’t for everyone — you can’t hide clutter —but solid doors would have overpowered the space with too much wood. There is additional storage room in the credenza.

The large (everything’s big in Texas!), dark, hand scraped wood desk with a Texas star on the front has two deep file drawers and smaller drawers to store supplies. With the desktop computer on the credenza, there’s plenty of workspace on the desk.

The sliding doors that would have fit perfectly in an old-time sheriff’s office, have canvas shades to give the owner a little privacy. This is especially helpful when he’s working, as his home office is next to the front door.

I give this office a gold star…actually, a Texas star.
