What Mediterranean style is

Mediterranean style borrows from Spain, Italy, and Greece: warm plaster-look walls, terracotta and tile, wrought iron, carved wood, and a palette of sun, sea, and olive. It flatters kitchens, dining rooms, and patios, and it is one of the best styles for an outdoor space.

Colors and materials

Palette: Warm white, terracotta, ochre, olive, and sea blue, with dark wood and black iron.

Materials: Terracotta and patterned tile, plaster and limewash finishes, wrought iron, rustic wood, rattan, linen, and ceramics.

The 5 pieces that make the look

1. A rustic wood dining table with iron or turned legs
2. Wrought-iron pendant or lantern lighting
3. Patterned (Moroccan or Spanish tile-look) rug or peel-and-stick tile
4. Terracotta planters with olive or citrus trees
5. Linen curtains and ceramic table lamps

Tick these in the Must include list when you design and the shopping list is built around them, with Amazon listings for each, priced to your budget.

Mistakes to avoid

• Orange walls. The warmth comes from materials, not paint.
• Too much pattern — tile, rug, and textiles all patterned. Pick one.
• Shiny modern metals; use iron and aged brass.

What it costs on Amazon

Mid-range: $1,000–$2,500 for a dining room or living room; patios run $800–$3,000 depending on the furniture set.
