What Is Mediterranean Style?

Mediterranean-style interior design is a riff on the décor found in countries that border the Mediterranean Sea. Whether you’re channeling a warm, carefree summer in Santorini, Capri, or Ibiza, the best Mediterranean-style interior design focuses on indoor-outdoor living; natural materials and finishes; and an effortless, minimalist-chic approach to decorating that is rooted in centuries of life along the beautiful Mediterranean coast. Mediterranean is a variation of coastal design, which is a broader term based on the generic codes of seaside living. This style mainly comes from Greece, Italy, and Spain but it has also a lot of influence from Israel, Morocco, and beyond. French Riviera Style is a glamorous take on Mediterranean style that originated in the 1930s.

How To Achieve Mediterranean Style?

Opt for shades of white or cream on the walls and allow natural imperfections on walls to show through to add texture. Prefer wide plank wood flooring or tile depending on preference and climate. Leave flooring bare or use flat-weave rugs in natural materials and muted colors. For finishes, consider raw materials such as natural stone, unfinished wood, bamboo, or cement. Incorporate natural materials for furniture and decorative objects, such as rattan, wicker, straw, rope, jute, linen, and cotton. Choose rustic, sculptural objects, whether vintage or handcrafted, such as ceramics, bowls, baskets, and vases. If your climate permits, choose Mediterranean greenery like potted olive or lemon trees. Otherwise, try placing branches or simple dried flowers in a rustic vase.
