The entry hall used to have plaster walls, but those have been covered with shiplap. It also features eastern style furniture and sculptures, highlighting the minimalist asian style used through the house.
The house proper:

The house has been designed with an open floor plan. Because of this, there aren't too many walls to segregate various rooms, and the dining room, bar, living room and library are all part of one huge room. This entire floor has been done up in a deep designer blue. Arguably the most notable feature of this area is the bar.

The bar is truly a piece of art. Built on a slightly elevated platform, it’s made of hardwood that’s been masterfully carved to create a beautiful antiquated look. It features a large number of rare bottles of many types of alcohol, but knowing Rogan, he may just substitute these for buds of designer weed.
The Kitchen
Filled with all sorts of amenities and appliances, the kitchen features two islands with pull up seating and a rustic design, creating a casual environment to relax and snack. The kitchen islands mirror each other almost exactly, and feature a design that makes it look completely symmetrical on the outside, the only differences being the appliances inside the wood paneled drawers.

One sitting area in particular is separated from the rest of the house by glass walls. This looks to be the area to sit and smoke weed or DMT. While drug laws in Texas are stricter than Los Angeles, odds of Rogan’s house being raided seem rather low.

Located near the mezzanine on the second floor of his house, Rogan says this buddha is one of the most impulsive buys of his. When talking about it on his Instagram, Rogan said “ This is my big one. I’ve never weighed it, but it’s definitely a few hundred pounds. It’s the weirdest impulse purchase I’ve ever made, but I was high as f--- at the time and it reminded me so much of the Buddhas from my psychedelic experience I felt like I had to have it in my life."

Why did Joe Rogan Move out of California?
Prior to living here, Rogan lived in a $5 million dollar mansion in Los Angeles. However, according to him, the high taxes and liberal policies in the state were getting to be too much. California has a 13% tax, unlike Texas’ zero tax policy. If Rogan can use that to his advantage, he’s looking at saving almost $13 million off his Spotify deal.
In addition, he said LA in particular had an overcrowding and homelessness problem that was another factor in him moving. While He does still own his mansion in California, it’s unlikely that he’ll ever be living there again. After all, he’s moved his podcast room to Texas, making it impossible to truly have a Joe Rogan Experience from California anymore.
