Mediterranean Wonderlust Trend.

The captivating charm of Mediterranean decor has transcended its geographical origins and has become a beloved style found across the globe. It's no wonder that people are drawn to emulate Mediterranean colour palettes; evocative of lemon trees bursting with zesty pops of yellow against blue skies, or green basil leaves on plump red tomatoes, these shades instantly transport us to memories of blissful holidays, igniting a sense of joy and uplifting our moods.

The cheerful and sun-soaked tones evoke a feeling of relaxation, warmth, and the carefree spirit of vacation. Embracing Mediterranean colours in our homes allows us to capture that same enchanting atmosphere year-round, creating a space that boosts our spirits and brings a smile to our faces.

This year, it's all about shades that elevate your mood and allow you to express your personality. While there is certainly an exploration of vibrant and bold hues, there is also a special appreciation and love for earthy tones that beautifully accentuate these bolder shades. The Mediterranean colour trend, which is evocative of lemon trees bursting with zesty pops of yellow against blue skies, or green basil leaves on plump red tomatoes, is ideal for this.

Capture the essence of the Greek islands with a medley of sea-inspired shades, reminiscent of crystal-clear waters and sun-dappled skies. Pair them with whitewashed walls, natural textures, and lush greenery for an authentic Mediterranean vibe. If painting walls bright colours is too daunting for you, try painting furnishings in bold colours or buying statement colourful lighting - wink wink.

Incorporating the right lighting is essential to fully capture the essence of this coastal trend. Opt for fixtures that emit a warm and inviting glow, reminiscent of the Mediterranean sunset. Pendant lights with textured glass shades or rattan accents add a touch of coastal charm, while sconces and table lamps with soft, diffused light create a relaxing ambiance. Materials like wood, ceramics, and woven textures embody the coastal essence of Greek island interiors. Combine these with touches of brass or aged metals for a subtle hint of luxury and sophistication.
