Mediterranean Adobe Tiny House Design | Arched Windows + Curved Terracotta Walls

The Architectural Specs

This project demonstrates the complete lifecycle of a custom Mediterranean-style villa. The focus was on preserving traditional masonry while introducing a modern, airy interior volume.

• External Transformation: The transition from exposed stone and scaffolding to a smooth, peach-colored lime-wash finish creates a seamless, monolithic look that blends with the landscape.
• The Archway Narrative: A recurring arched motif is used throughout—from the heavy stone entrances during construction to the delicate, glass-framed mezzanine bedroom.
• Interior Volume: The ground floor features an open-plan kitchen and dining area nestled under a vaulted white-washed timber ceiling, providing a sense of historical grandeur in a compact footprint.
• The Mezzanine Loft: A private sleeping area that overlooks the main living space through a large arched internal window, maintaining a connection to the social areas below.

How I Designed This with AI

The core of this AI challenge was Spatial Consistency across different states of completion (Construction vs. Finished).

Phased Rendering: To get the "Before" shot right, I used prompts like "rough stone masonry," "exposed scaffolding," and "workers in vintage workwear" to give it an authentic, timeless construction feel.

Material Lighting: For the finished interior (Image 3), the key was balancing warm incandescent light from the wicker pendants with the soft natural daylight coming through the arched windows. I used keywords like "diffused sunset light" and "matte peach textures" to ensure the surfaces felt tactile rather than plasticky.
