Elevate your home with these tantalizing Spanish decor inspirations!

Spanish home decor is unique and striking in its rustic style and simplicity. Spanish decor is recreated across the world, and it’s easy to see why it’s so popular.

A key part of Spanish culture and lifestyle is family. Home cooking is popular, as is entertaining family and friends in your home. Because of Spain’s fantastic and warm climate, Spanish families are renowned for their indoor/outdoor dining and living styles.

Many months of the year, the climate is warm and pleasant enough for the entire family to dine and entertain outdoors in a garden or patio area.

The home’s kitchen is often situated towards the back of the house, close to outdoor dining areas so that food can be served outdoors.

Dining rooms often open up through large French doors onto an outdoor dining area, to provide a transitional indoor and outdoor dining terrace.


Spanish Interior Colors

Spanish Interior Colors

Spanish home design includes plenty of warmer colors, such as burnt oranges, terracotta, and red toned browns. They are used to make the room feel cozier and to reflect the pleasant outdoor climate. To prevent the room from feeling too stuffy and small, make sure you balance out your warmer colors with a neutral background.

White is a fantastic backdrop color. It gives you a blank canvas to be creative. It lightens the room, feels clean, and neutralizes the bold warm colors. It also helps your color accents stand out and not be lost in a sea of contrast and clashing tones.

If not kept bare, walls can also be plastered with a smooth or uneven finish, then painted white to give homeowners that blank canvas.

Wallpaper is rarely used but instead wall coverings and wall art are popular.

Large drapes or fabric artwork are hung on the walls, often depicting elaborate patterns in warm and neutral colors.


Spanish Wall Art
