“Sweeping concrete walls and huge glass walls, rectilinear blocks and infinity pools, steel rails and sliding doors . . . these are the stars of the striking, delightful, always airy, beautiful yet sometimes stark buildings in this fascinating book.”—Image Interiors Endless sun, sparkling sea, crystalline sky—these are the key elements of Mediterranean living. From southern Spain to northern Africa, from Greece to the Côte d’Azur, here are twenty-five contemporary houses from around the Mediterranean Sea. The book includes work by internationally established architects, such as Alberto Campo de Baeza and Carlos Ferrater, and houses created by a number of the region’s rising stars. The houses differ in their locations and styles but are united by clean lines, open floor plans, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. A fusion of interior style and architecture, of glorious natural landscapes and bold man-made forms, Mediterranean Modern will appeal to design aficionados as well as practicing architects and designers.

For centuries artists, diplomats, and merchants served as cultural intermediaries in the Mediterranean. Stationed in port cities and other entrepôts of the Mediterranean, these go-betweens forged intercultural connections even as they negotiated and sometimes promoted cultural misunderstandings. They also moved objects of all kinds across time and space. This volume considers how the mobility of art and material culture is intertwined with greater Mediterranean networks from 1580 to 1880. Contributors see the movement of people and objects as transformational, emphasizing the trajectory of objects over single points of origin, multiplicity over unity, and mutability over stasis.

Bringing to light the debt twentieth-century modernist architects owe to the vernacular building traditions of the Mediterranean region, this book considers architectural practice and discourse from the 1920s to the 1980s. The essays here situate Mediterranean modernism in relation to concepts such as regionalism, nationalism, internationalism, critical regionalism, and postmodernism - an alternative history of the modern architecture and urbanism of a critical period in the twentieth century.
