Historic Mediterranean

Bringing Mediterranean Style to the Midwest with this Central Iowan Renovation.

This home renovation draws inspiration from the breathtaking coastal designs found along the Mediterranean Sea, in countries like Greece, Italy, and Morocco.

In this beautifully blue kitchen, you’re instantly drawn to the rich navy color accented throughout the space. The mosaic tile in the backsplash features blues, yellows, and whites that complement other characteristics found in the room, like the cabinetry hardware that pulls yellow/gold. To tie the entire look together, you’ll find natural browns incorporated as well. The deep brown barstools, trim, and pantry doors enhance the vibrancy of the brighter colors in the kitchen. The floor has a lighter shade with a hexagonal pattern. This reflects the earthy, natural style found in Mediterranean interior design.

Smooth textures mixed with rattan materials and archways are all attributes in a modern Mediterranean home. It offers a welcoming vibe that is pleasing and somewhat rustic, with rich cultural influences.
