[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Tuscan themed kitchens from 20 years ago are so overdone and fake. Google some of the Spanish Eclectic or Spanish colonial revival styles of the early to mid-20th century and their kitchens. There are some gorgeous and mindful kitchen renovations in some of these homes that could provide great "mediterranean" inspiration without going full Tuscan themed.[/quote] I love the California Spanish colonials of the 1920s-1930s. They're so light and airy and often have wonderful tilework. I have no idea why people fell for the rather brown and gloomy bulked up "Tuscany" look. [/quote] My parents owned one those those. Agree it’s totally different from the Tuscan look. There was lots of Stucco outside, dark wood beams, high ceilings. It was all off white stucco and brown wood, not that red tile or pinkish stuff popular in other “Spanish style.” [/quote]
