Why It Works
Mediterranean kitchens succeed with their blend of rustic warmth and artisanal beauty. Hand-painted tile backsplashes, warm wood cabinetry, and stone countertops create a kitchen that invites leisurely cooking. Open archways, terracotta pots with herbs, and a farmhouse sink grounded in natural stone complete the European countryside feel.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a mediterranean kitchen redesign cost?
Costs vary widely based on scope. A cosmetic refresh with paint, textiles, and accessories can start at $500-$2,000. A full renovation with new furniture, lighting, and surfaces typically runs $5,000-$25,000+ depending on room size and material quality. Using Layoutly AI to visualize changes first helps you prioritize spending where it matters most.
Can I achieve a mediterranean kitchen look on a budget?
Absolutely. Focus on the highest-impact, lowest-cost changes first: paint, textiles (throws, cushions, rugs), and lighting can dramatically shift a room's feel. Thrift stores and online marketplaces are great sources for mediterranean furniture. Layoutly helps you test budget-friendly options before purchasing.

Upload a photo of your current kitchen to Layoutly and select the mediterranean style. The AI will generate a redesigned version showing exactly how your space would look with mediterranean elements.
