Mediterranean Style


Hello, dear friends. It's funny how I don't even move now when there is a tremor in Peru. When we first got here I used to rush outside until it was over. There was a tremor about 5 minutes ago, but I've got so used to them, I just go on with whatever I was doing (preparing this post in this case) while counting how long it lasts - 17 seconds this time. I've been told I have to have a backpack ready in case there is a major earthquake. Sounds scary. Hope I don't have to use it.

Ok, so we are off to Spain today to visit a rustic home on the island of Majorca, overlooking the fields below and The Mediterranean Sea in the horizon. Not many photographs of the interiors, I'm afraid. These will have to do.

Mediterranean Style Home

Good morning dear readers. Today we should go to Maresme in Spain to visit this new family home. Decorator Ester Zárate from Côté Déco studio mixed rustic and classic furniture to create this Mediterranean Style home.


An inviting sitting area in the porch with wicker furniture and weather proof curtains. Such a lovely spot to enjoy the garden.

At the other end of the porch more wicker chairs for the outdoors dining area.

Another view of the porch. I like the way it looks like a living room with the seagrass rug and lamps and oversized ottoman.

Soft palette in the living room. A mixture of antique and modern furniture.

Open floor plan for the living room and dining room.

Inviting dining area in the kitchen.

Pink and feminine bedroom with voile curtains.

Wicker baskets in this rustic cupboard keep things in place.

Huge windows leading out to a balcony bring the outdoors into the master bedroom.

A lovely pergola with dark stained pine deck in the garden by the pool.

A great spot to lie down for a while and enjoy the good weather.

Rustic Guesthouse in Italy

This beautiful guesthouse in southern Italy is called the Masseria Cimino. It is an 18th century building, renovated in 2005 and now consigned to San Domenico Golf as its guest House. Very romantic, furnished in a fresh, contemporary Mediterranean style. Ornamented with artfully rusted farm tools, dried plants and flowers, jars of preserves and painted wood furniture. Some of the rooms have a beautiful working fireplace and others have balconies with a little terrace overlooking the Championship golf course with a view of the Adriatic Sea.

Hope you are all enjoying this beautiful Sunday!
