Mediterranean Revival architecture

 

Mediterranean Revival architecture is an architectural style that draws inspiration from the Mediterranean region, particularly Spain and Italy. It became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States. This style is characterized by the use of stucco exteriors, red-tiled roofs, arched doorways, and wrought-iron details. Buildings designed in the Mediterranean Revival style often have a relaxed and rustic appearance reminiscent of Mediterranean villas. This architectural style was frequently used for residential and resort buildings in coastal and warm-weather regions of the United States.
