The Mediterranean style is one of the most popular styles in the United States. Drawing inspiration from Italy, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Greece, etc., this style is known for its red tile roofs, stucco exterior, and archways. Along with the characteristics of the architecture and exterior that the style is known for, these homes feature large windows and ornate doors connecting you to the outdoor living spaces like patios, terraces, and balconies that are common. This house plan style is a relaxing retreat for the homeowners as it connects the interior of the home to nature and its surroundings. Because of these features, you will find this architecture to be more prominent in warmer, dryer climates like California, Florida, Texas, and other cities around the coastlines. With that said, if you love this architectural style, these house plans can be modified to fit the climate needs of the midwest if requested by a client.
