Why It Works

Mediterranean living rooms work because the style captures the warmth and ease of Southern European life. Terracotta floors, arched doorways, and whitewashed walls create a sunlit foundation, while wrought iron accents and rich textiles in burnt orange and cobalt blue add Old World character. The result feels like a villa escape.

How to Achieve This Look

1
Apply textured plaster or lime wash to walls
2
Choose warm terracotta and earthy color tones
3
Add wrought iron light fixtures and accessories
4
Use natural stone or terracotta tile flooring
5
Select furniture with carved wood or turned legs
6
Incorporate Mediterranean pottery and olive branches

Pro Tip

Apply a lime wash or Venetian plaster to one wall — the texture and depth it creates cannot be replicated with paint.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a mediterranean living room redesign cost?

Costs vary widely based on scope. A cosmetic refresh with paint, textiles, and accessories can start at $500-$2,000.

Using Layoutly AI to visualize changes first helps you prioritize spending where it matters most.
