#8821. Traditional Mediterranean interior with expressive coffered ceiling and built-in niches

The presented interior showcases an excellent example of traditional Mediterranean or Spanish rustic style, where the expressive coffered ceiling serves as the main accent. Massive wooden beams treated with dark stain create a powerful architectural framework, while the spaces between them are filled with decorative triangular elements in warm beige and terracotta tones, adding depth and visual interest to the upper plane of the room.

The white walls of the room serve as a neutral background, allowing the ceiling structure to take center stage. Built-in niches with shelves are organically integrated into the architecture of the room, creating functional storage space and display areas without cluttering the living space. These niches are filled with various artifacts and household items, emphasizing the homey, lived-in atmosphere.

A large window with wooden frames and opening casements provides natural lighting that penetrates the room, creating a play of light and shadow on the terracotta tile floor. This type of flooring is characteristic of Mediterranean style and harmonizes perfectly with the overall color scheme of the interior.

The furnishing follows a minimalist approach: a simple table covered with a plaid tablecloth, a wicker basket, and several pieces of dark wood furniture. A vintage colorful rug on the floor adds warmth and coziness, serving as a connecting element between various furniture pieces.

When designing a country house facade in a similar style, it's worth paying attention to characteristic techniques such as the use of natural materials, especially expressive wooden elements, traditional masonry, and textured plaster. In the interior, one can apply a similar approach to ceiling structures, exposed beams, and niches, which not only serve decorative purposes but also functionally organize the space.
