What Makes Up the Texas Style?
Texas has some of the most unique geographies in the country, which, combined with its rich history and reputation for all things big, results in some incredibly unique house styles.
Waterfront
The Galveston and Corpus Christi areas, for example, are close to the Gulf of Mexico, and thus these Texas style homes are more likely to include docks or backyards that lead right up to the beach or water. Plans inspired by this region of include these common features:
- Large, open floor plans
- Natural finishes
- Huge windows for enjoying the gorgeous scenery
- Larger than average square footage size
Rustic
Some of our more traditional plans draw on the state’s agriculture and livestock lineage, resulting in more rustic Texas style house plans. Sprawling ranch, huge country style homes, and plantation homes are common architectural styles. These plans typically include:
- High ceilings
- Multiple levels
- Several bedrooms
- Multiple bathrooms
Rustic ranch style plans typically cover large areas of land, including gardens, patios, and ample outdoor entertaining spaces.
Hill Country
Another well-known style of Texas architecture is known as Hill Country. These homes draw significant inspiration from European styles thanks to the early settlers from countries such as Germany, Italy, and France. They use the natural resources of the area, including cedar and limestone, as primary building materials, resulting in a sturdy and distinct look that also carries great insulation.
Texas style home plans come in many other varieties, including Victorian, Craftsman, cottage, and Mediterranean home designs. Whether you’re building in Austin or want to bring a little Dallas flare to another state, find your perfect plan here. Contact our support team with any questions!

And to anyone who was raised or spent significant time here, it is also the home of quaint towns, “rolling hills covered with oak and cedar… creeks and rivers.” With its vast spread of land and terrain,
