Welcome to OurHome2 Houston Your Local Decor Guide
After focusing on Dallas vibes, I’m excited to bring that same real-talk approach to Houston. Living in Texas means dealing with humid days, big open homes, and that mix of urban energy with suburban calm—whether you’re in a Montrose bungalow or a Heights townhouse.
OurHome2 Houston pulls together ideas that fit our local lives: breathable fabrics for sticky summers, layouts that handle family gatherings, and colors that pop against our bright skies. In 2025, we’re seeing soft curves, natural materials like oak and stone, and muted palettes with subtle warmth.
If you’ve ever wanted your space to feel more inviting without a full redo, this is for you. Let’s make Houston homes cozier together.
Why Houston Homes Shine with These Updates
Houston’s mix of styles—from mid-century in the Heights to modern in River Oaks—gives us room to play. I love how warm neutrals ground flooded light, while curved furniture softens boxy rooms.
Readers here often share struggles with humidity fading colors or needing multifunctional spots for work-from-home. OurHome2 Houston focuses on durable, livable choices: linen upholstery, reclaimed wood accents, and plants that thrive indoors.
These small shifts create that “come in and stay” feeling, perfect for our welcoming Texas spirit.
Top Trends for OurHome2 Houston in 2025
Curves lead the way—rounded sofas and arched mirrors adding gentle flow, great for open Houston plans.
Warm woods like walnut or white oak bring texture, paired with stone counters or plaster walls for depth.
Earthy tones—sage greens, soft terracottas, creamy beiges—keep things calm yet rich.
Layer in mixed materials: metal lights with rattan shades, or wool rugs over hardwood.
These fit Montrose eclectic spots or Energy Corridor clean lines beautifully.
