Mediterranean Living: Stylish and Elegant or Close to Nature (Dreaming Of) -> Mediterranean Living: Stylish, Elegant, Close to Nature

Envision the stunning fields of lavender, crystal clear waters, and ancient gnarled olive trees of the Mediterranean. The residents of this region, which straddles three continents, are influenced by European, African, and Asian cultures. The living culture around the largest inland sea is a result of the interaction of these influences with the unique climate, and has always been a source of inspiration for the rest of the world.

Sunny terraces, shady courtyards, and colors that reflect the landscape, the sky, and the sea are just some of the defining features of the Mediterranean lifestyle. This volume showcases the diverse and creative range of contemporary homes and apartments designed by international architecture firms and emerging local architects. These dwellings can be minimalistic or opulent, newly constructed or remodeled from old ruins, and can be found from Ibiza to Tel Aviv, and from Greece to Morocco.
