Resort living, alfresco entertaining: the cornerstone of the Moditerranean trend
The kitchen is traditionally the heart of the home, but when it comes to Moditerranean, the alfresco is where the magic happens! Embrace the quintessential Mediterranean trend of long lunches outdoors that extend into the evening by designing your space with entertaining in mind.

Take inspiration from Courtney and Grant’s stunning indoor-outdoor retreat on The Block. Their design ethos is all about blending seamless outdoor flow with luxurious simplicity. Limestone stepping stones lead to a sophisticated alfresco area with a pizza oven, smoker, and pool – the ideal space for gathering friends and family. TrendWall® delivers a premium, refined backdrop, allowing the considered design details of the space to take centre stage. Unsurprisingly, this home has been dubbed a space that “sells the dream.” “This indoor-outdoor flow, this is what people pay for,” Judge Marty Fox gushed. And with judge Darren Palmer observing ‘“That looks lush and expensive”, it’s no surprise that Moditerranean is more than a trend; it’s a design principle.

Embrace organic shapes, arches and curves
Traditional elements shine through with the inclusion of organic shapes. Playful arches and gentle curves add depth and character to your design. Whether in the form of rounded doorways or elegant seating arrangements, these soft lines create a sense of flow and connection, reminiscent of the charming villas found in Mediterranean regions.

Maintain a sleek sense of symmetry
Balancing modernity with organic shapes is key to achieving the Moditerranean aesthetic. Design for a sense of symmetry to contrast against lush arches and curves to maintain visual appeal. ModularWalls’ clean lines and premium, monolithic finish provide the perfect foil to offset designer curves and shapes.
“ModularWalls has helped us achieve the aesthetic we were after. It tied in with the Mediterranean feel I wanted, and it feels so grand. The space would not look as good as it does without it!”

Embrace rustic textures and natural materials
Layer an abundance of textures to achieve an effortless Moditerranean look. Think travertine, sandstone, render, and stucco to evoke a sense of authenticity. These elements enhance the warmth and character of your space, creating a welcoming environment that feels both luxurious and earthy.

Keep it refined with a neutral colour
When it comes to colour, the Moditerranean style lends itself toward a refined palette. Opt for neutral tones, including crisp whites and subtle blush or terracotta shades. Dulux Lexicon Quarter remains the perennial favourite with a modern yet timeless appeal. Styling touches like a travertine table or terracotta pots create further design flair.
