Open and airy layout

Mediterranean interiors often have an open and spacious layout that promotes a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. 

Large windows, glass doors, and archways allow abundant natural light to fill the rooms and provide views of the surrounding landscape.

Geometric or floral motifs in colorful tiles are commonly used in kitchens, bathrooms, and as accents on floors, backsplashes, or walls. 

These tiles add a touch of elegance and visual appeal to the space.

Accessories and accents

Mediterranean design incorporates decorative accessories and accents that reflect the culture and heritage of the region. 

This includes items like wrought iron light fixtures, ceramic vases, mosaic mirrors, patterned textiles, and Mediterranean-inspired artwork.
