Sophisticated Mediterranean Restaurant Interior Design

Original Prompt: Create a modern Mediterranean restaurant interior with sophisticated warmth and cultural depth. Incorporate warm and sophisticated lighting, such as geometric brass pendants inspired by Middle Eastern lanterns that cast intricate shadows, recessed cove lighting with soft gold LEDs, and amber globe chandeliers with twisted rope suspensions for communal tables. The color palette should feature calming base neutrals—sandy beige walls, warm white plaster arches, and walnut wood floors. Accent these neutrals with vibrant hues, including terracotta tile backsplashes, deep indigo banquettes, olive-green upholstery, and gold-mirrored elements for cultural richness. Furniture choices should prioritize modern comfort and artisanal craftsmanship. Include curved low sofas in neutral linens with kilim-print cushions, slim oak chairs with woven leather backs, and round stone tabletops on brass bases. Offer semi-private nooks with embroidered linen curtains and mosaic coffee tables. The restaurant layout should blend functionality and immersive experiences, featuring: An entrance with a brass-framed QR code art installation beside potted olive trees. Frameless digital menu screens showcasing dishes and Mediterranean landscapes. An open-concept kitchen separated by a terracotta brick half-wall, illuminated with copper pendant lights, allowing diners to view chefs grilling. An onyx bar counter with amber LED backlighting, serving mezcal tastings on hammered brass trays. Zoned seating should include main dining areas with banquettes under terracotta-leather cushioned arches and an outdoor terrace with woven rattan loungers surrounded by fragrant herbs. Enhance the space with cultural details, such as tribal-patterned wool rugs, saffron tasseled pillows, hand-painted ceramic plates, vintage spice posters, and botanical touches with fig trees, olive branches, and hanging herb gardens. Create a sensory-rich atmosphere with herbal scents, curated Arabic jazz and Mediterranean folk music, and diverse textures from rough plaster walls to marble countertops and kilim rugs. The ambiance should seamlessly blend modernity and tradition, creating an inviting space for guests to enjoy shared dishes and mint tea.
