HOW TO CREATE MEDITERRANEAN VIBES IN YOUR HOME
The Mediterranean Sea has long been revered as a place of beauty, relaxation, and luxury. From the clear blue waters to the picturesque coastline dotted with charming villages, it's no wonder that so many people dream of one day owning a home by the sea.
But what if you can't afford a vacation home in the Mediterranean? Or what if you live in a city and can't even get to the beach on a regular basis?
Don't despair! You can create Mediterranean vibes in your own home, no matter where you live. With these few simple tips, you can transform your space into an oasis of peace and relaxation.
Bring in some greenery
One of the most distinctive features of the Mediterranean landscape is its lush vegetation. To create a similar feel in your home, fill it with plants!
Place potted palms in your living room, hang ferns in your bathroom, and put succulents on your windowsills.
Not only will your home look more inviting, but you'll also enjoy the benefits of improved air quality.

Let in the light
Another defining characteristic of Mediterranean style is an abundance of natural light.
If your home is lacking in this department, make sure to take advantage of any sunlight that does come in by keeping your windows clean and unobstructed.
You might also want to consider installing skylights or solar tubes to brighten up dark rooms.
Choose calming colours
The colors of the Mediterranean are soft and soothing, so when choosing paint colors or fabrics for your home, stick to muted tones like pale blue, sea green, or sandstone.
You can also incorporate bolder hues like terracotta or turquoise, as long as they're used sparingly. Too much color can be overwhelming, so it's best to keep things subdued.

Add some warmth with wood accents
In addition to being abundant in nature, wood is also a traditional material used in Mediterranean architecture and design.
To bring a touch of the Mediterranean into your home, use wood accents sparingly throughout your space.
A carved wooden coffee table or headboard would be perfect for adding a touch of luxury, while wooden shutters or blinds can help create a more rustic feel.
Hang a print that captures the essence of the Med
With a few well-chosen fine art prints, you can easily create the same tranquil, relaxed vibe in your own home. Select a print that captures the essence of the Mediterranean Sea - think clear blue waters and sunny skies while looking for a frame that will complement the print and help to create a cohesive look.
For an added touch of elegance, choose a frame with an intricate design or embellishments. Make sure you consider hanging the print in a place where it will catch the light and create a focal point in the room.

Set the mood with music
Music is an essential part of any Mediterranean experience. Create a playlist of your favourite Italian songs or find a radio station that plays international music. Crank up the volume and enjoy!
Get cooking!
One of the best parts of the Mediterranean lifestyle is the food. Fill your kitchen with healthy, delicious ingredients and start cooking up some authentic dishes.
From pasta primavera to chicken shawarma, there are endless possibilities when it comes to Mediterranean cuisine.
