A 36-page Mediterranean playbook for renters. Four rooms, Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams paint codes, a 20-item shopping index with price bands, and three weekend projects.
Mediterranean is terracotta, wrought iron and hand-painted tile against whitewashed plaster. Rough-hewn olive wood, hand-loomed linen, jute, in clay and Aegean cobalt. Warm and worn rather than styled.
This book prices the look for a rental. Paint colours are named for two brands. Products are named by retailer so you know what to search for. Every project in it uses a removable or reversible method.
What is in the 36 pages
Seven opening pages set the style up: era and origin, materials, references, the colour palette, and master finishes. Sixteen pages cover four rooms. The remaining 13 are a renter playbook: rules, proportions, room commitments, a style diagnostic, maker provenance, three projects, a thrift guide, substitutions, and a two-page shopping index.
The four rooms
Living Room, Bedroom, Kitchen / Dining and Bathroom. Each room gets four pages: the room itself, an education spread, a mixed moodboard, and a shop-the-look page.
Paint and materials
Five paint colours, each with a Benjamin Moore name and code and a Sherwin-Williams name and code. Terracotta Clay is BM Pueblo 2174-30 or SW Fired Brick SW 6335. Seven signature materials: terracotta, hand-painted tile, whitewashed plaster, wrought iron, rough-hewn olive wood and hand-loomed linen, and more.
The shopping index
Twenty items grouped by room, each with a price band and the page it appears on. Terra linen sofa, Arhaus runs $1,200 to $1,800. World Market jute rug 8x10 runs $150 to $225.
Weekend projects
Three builds with a materials list and a running cost, from $20 to $100. Peel-and-stick talavera backsplash, hammered copper mirror surround and terracotta herb cluster, windowsill garden.
Renter rules and substitutions
Two pages of renter rules, then eight substitution pages: the designer piece, the cheaper piece, and why the trade holds up. Arhaus reclaimed olive wood round, 60" - $2,100-2,900 against World Market solid acacia round, 54" - $300-500.
What format is the file
PDF, 36 pages. It opens on a phone, a laptop, or a printer. No app and no login.
Are the products shown clickable
No. Retailers and product names are printed so you know what to search for. Nothing routes out to a store.
Are the prices real
They are researched estimate bands, not live quotes. Check the current figure before you buy.
Will any of this work in a rental
Two pages of renter rules cover what to avoid, and every one of the three projects uses a removable or reversible method.
How do I know Mediterranean is the right style
A four-panel diagnostic sets mediterranean beside the things it gets mistaken for: Spanish-style kitsch, generic boho, Tuscan overload and all-white coastal, with the tell for each.
