Mediterranean setting
Azure coast locale
A Mediterranean setting evokes the landscapes, architecture, and atmosphere of countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea—sun-drenched coastlines, whitewashed buildings, olive groves, terracotta tiles, and azure waters.
The term appears in real estate, interior design, and fiction to suggest warmth, leisure, and Old World charm: The novel unfolds in a Mediterranean setting of fishing villages and hilltop ruins.
