Mediterranean Elegance: Spacious Kitchen with Arched Elements and Kitchen Island

#9183. Mediterranean Elegance: Spacious Kitchen with Arched Elements and Kitchen Island

This interior represents a magnificent example of Mediterranean style in a modern interpretation. The spacious kitchen-dining area of the country house demonstrates a harmonious combination of functionality and aesthetics. The central element of the composition is a massive kitchen island with a granite countertop, serving simultaneously as a work surface and a place for casual dining, as evidenced by three elegant bar stools.

Architecturally, the space is organized using arched openings, creating a smooth transition between functional zones. Particularly expressive is the semicircular arch with a French window, framing the dining area with an elegant glass table. High ceilings are emphasized by decorative elements, among which stands out a suspended system for kitchen utensils — a practical and simultaneously decorative solution.

The color palette of the interior is built on warm neutral tones — beige walls, light natural stone flooring, and dark wooden furniture accents. This solution creates an atmosphere of comfort and provides a foundation for decorative elements in the form of a bright ceramic rooster figure and floral arrangements.

Special attention deserves the facade design and window openings, visible from the inside. The architect skillfully integrated the external architecture of the house with the interior space, using large windows for maximum natural lighting and visual expansion of space.

The kitchen backsplash is made of tiles with a diamond pattern, which adds textural variety and contrasts with the smooth surfaces of the countertops. Built-in modern appliances blend seamlessly with the classic look of the kitchen cabinetry, demonstrating a thoughtful balance between tradition and modernity.

When designing your own home, it's worth paying attention to techniques such as: using arched structures for zoning without visually dividing the space; combining different light sources (ceiling lights, colored glass pendants, wall sconces); integrating decorative and functional elements; as well as playing with textures and natural materials to create depth in the interior.
