First of all.. what is the #Mediterraneanlife? How can we define it? To answer these questions we have done some research on Instagram. We started with the Architecture, the exterior of Mediterranean homes typically feature a red-tiled roof (usually terra cotta), as well as brick or stucco that’s often painted white.
There are three main styles of Mediterranean homes:
– Italian Renaissance: Drawing inspiration from buildings during the Italian Renaissance, this style is marked by columns and rounded arches.
– Spanish Revival: This home, which is influenced by Spanish colonial architecture, usually boasts simple, clean lines and a low-pitch roof.
– Modern Mediterranean: The style has traditional characteristics of Mediterranean homes with a modern twist. A focus on indoor-outdoor living, spacious, open floor plans, along with Spanish and Italian influences, are evident in these homes.
If you want to take a deeper look into the Mediterranean Architecture we suggest you to take a look at Emily Johnson great Instagram account @earthencointeriors.
The #mediterraneanlife started as a visual trend on Instagram, but today many fashion brands are discovering and “re-discovering” the beauty of natural landscapes, sunsents in the olive groves, and beautiful outside dining athmosphere. These brands are also aligning themselves aesthetically with the change in the meaning of luxury itself. For Instance Chanel’s “Ballade en Mediterranee”, Jacquemus, Jil Sander, and Bottega Veneta all pushed to produce content that makes you dream of a reassuring world, made of simple and nostalgic sensations of childhood. A world that is opposite to that of the big city.
The Mediterranean aesthetic is full of simple beauty, and @christinaerkhova is perfectly capturing the atmosphere.
