Every Mediterranean restaurant is offered the same shortcut: blue, white, and a fishing net somewhere on the wall. None of it was used here.
The south arrives in the surfaces instead. Plaster sculpted overhead in slow curves, the way wind leaves sand. Brass the colour of late afternoon. Lemon trees that are actually growing, and majolica painted by hand.
The chain curtains do the rest: they move whenever anyone walks past, so the room never stands completely still.
A room can suggest the south without quoting it. That version is harder, and it is the one that lasts.
