Everybody who as a teenager was goth, please put your hands up. Finally after years of funny looks from others, our style is appreciated and is gaining popularity.

In home decor niche Western Gothic style is tempting more and more. It’s no surprise as people are bored of beiges and minimalism. This style combines the moodiness of Gothic with bold elements of Western style and creates a combination that can’t be ignored.

Let me show you some examples of how to introduce Western Gothic style into your living room.

1. Moody colors in Western Gothic style

Dark moody walls are gaining popularity. They add a lot of character to the space but can be overwhelming, when they’re not balanced out properly.

To avoid feeling like you’re in a cave, introduce some light by using plants, lamps and light colored furniture – like these caramel leather armchairs.

Together with white throw blankets they introduce just enough light to the room.

2. Moody interior with white walls

Gothic doesn’t mean that everything in your space has to be black. This example shows perfectly that characteristic furniture is enough to make a big impact on a space.

Dark colors of the rug and sofa compliment a beautiful coffee table, cowboy poster and exposed beams.

Plants are amazing fillers for any space and these succulents fit here perfectly.

3. Leather furniture in Gothic style

Once again we see a combination of dark walls and caramel leather furniture.

Golden sconces and chandelier add some luxury to the space and beautiful painting and cowhide rug remind us that we’re still in the Wild West.

4. Black balanced out with warm wood

In this black and brown space succulents fit in perfectly. They add an extra pop of color, so the room doesn’t look boring.

The same purpose serves gray elements like a pillow or one of the rugs.

Layering rugs also adds some interest and depth to the space.

5. Blue in Western Gothic style

This coffee table is one of a kind and will be a center of attention in any space. If that alone doesn’t remind you of Western Style, we also have here a big rug and throw pillows in indigenous patterns as well as a skull on the wall.

Using dark blue on the walls brings some calmness to the space.

6. Western Gothic sitting space

If you don’t want to decorate your whole living room in Western Gothic style, creating a sitting corner like that is a nice idea.

Leather chairs, wall decor and cactus look amazing on the dark wall.

7. Half and half

Some people would say that this is no longer Gothic style because there’s only black wall and a couple candles. Others will say that it’s Goth enough for them.

This room is nicely balanced with dark and light colors, so it’s interesting to look at. We have Gothic elements here as well as Western so it fits in the style.

8. Truly Goth

Now this is a wall of a true Goth enthusiast.

Lots of Goth decor mixed with Western skulls should satisfy every eccentric.

9. Beautiful horses in moody room

Once again we see a combination of dark walls with warm brown furniture.

First thing you see here are the beautiful horses but if you look closer you’ll notice lots of natural materials.

We have here a wooden table, fur throw blanket and a stone side table. All of this creates an interesting space.

10. Western Gothic in cold tones

Old leather sofa and skull on white wooden pillar belong to the Western style. Combined with dark walls and white rugs they create a look perfect for people who are not fans of warm colors. After all, everyone can find something for themselves.

As you see Western Gothic style has many faces and can adapt to everyone, so don’t be afraid and introduce some interesting elements into your home.
