Moroccan Style Can Be Colorful

Opulent color

Romantic to the extreme, yet not frilly or fussy. Morocco style says adventure and comfort at the same time- a truly enigmatic set of impressions. Pattern is intricate, and may show up on tables, tiles, teapots, or lanterns. Colors may be intense, but are more often burnished and faded. Comfort and visual interest are key. These elements may be used together to give a specific theme, or included in an eclectic mix to give a layer of richness. Use these North African accessories to lend an air of the exotic, and a feeling of luxury to your rooms.  

Moroccan Can Be Modern

You’ve decided its time for something out of the ordinary… It could just be a few exciting accents, or it could be time for a complete overhaul of a rooms design, but you are hungry for color and pattern, for bits of luxury and loveliness, or simply a feeling of far-off places. Marrakesh conjures up just such longings and satisfies the oft held décor aspirations that led to Turkish rugs, colorful tiles, and other elements that have proven perennially popular. Once the design direction has been chosen, it is time to take the magic carpet ride to this exotic land for ideas, color palettes, and a plan.

Moroccan Color Is Surprising

Blue and white may be one of the traditional forms of color seen within the tiles or fabrics, but as in many warm climes, a bright array of hues finds a home as well. Taking a cue from the brightly painted tiles, or maybe a favorite painting that depicts a painters rendition of the interior rooms of a sultan’s palace… there are many starting points for this decorating adventure. Pattern pops up everywhere, beautiful greens, contrasting Persian red, and clear light blues mix softly and in no way clashing.

I love Middle Eastern foods. Not only is the Mediterranean diet healthy, but the flavors rich. Borrow some of the traditional cooking utensils for adding spice to the décor, as well. I think the tangines are beautiful- not just in the colorful range of shades, but because they can go from oven to table and serve the food to perfection. The Moroccan copper pans and servers will bring sparkle and panache to a kitchen. Large platters patterned with color are a useful display. Let your imagination find expression in using some of the most beautiful pieces in either customary or unusual ways.
