Mediterranean Patio Design Ideas
A mediterranean patio combines the sun-drenched warmth reminiscent of coastal Italian and Spanish villas with a space designed for anyone with a hardscape outdoor area.
A patio typically features furniture, planters, shade structure, lighting. Container gardening and vertical space are your best friends in a patio. When designed in the mediterranean style, these elements get elevated with terracotta, warm ochre, olive green, cobalt blue accents and materials like terracotta pots, natural stone, wrought iron, glazed tiles.
