Mediterranean Interior

Tranquility, sun, celebration, warmth. No matter where you are in the world, Artsper has the key to bringing these amazing things into your home; a Mediterranean interior. Famed for an incredible climate, a rich yet laid-back culture and a penchant for enjoying the simple pleasures in life, Mediterrean countries- that is to say the coastal regions of Greece, Italy, Spain and Morocco- are envied across the world. 

So what is a Mediterranean interior? The varied and vibrant cultures of Mediterranean countries mean that materials and color palettes differ, however the core principles of the design style remain the same. The focus is placed on simple, whitewashed walls, unpretentious furnishings, highlighting unrefined, natural materials, and incorporating motifs inspired by the region. Regarding the color schemes, Greek interiors tend towards cooler tones, such as the stark whites and rich blues of Santorini, whilst Italian, Spanish and Moroccan tend towards warmer colors such as yellows, oranges, pinks and golds, drawing inspiration from earthy tones. 

When considering artwork for a Mediterranean interior, there are several important factors to consider. Firstly, it is essential that the artwork blend seamlessly with the color scheme to create an inviting, calming environment. Art fabricated from natural fibers such as textiles, terracotta or wood can bring a gorgeous yet laid-back element to your living space. The stunning climate conditions can even make outdoor art an excellent choice!

Numerous artists draw on the Mediterranean for inspiration, creating pieces that fit perfectly into a Mediterranean-inspired interior. Emerging American artist Britt Falco's extensive travels in the region have inspired several of her highly unique hand-sewn cotton tapestries. 

Another artist heavily influenced by the region is Moroccan painter Najib Ghissassi's hyperrealistic paintings celebrate the finest Moroccon architecture and culture. Meanwhile Spanish artist Isabelle Fournet's abstract canvases use expressionist techniques to capture the essence of the Mediterranean sea.
