I’ve noticed these beautiful rugs popping up everywhere and let’s just say, I’m a little bit obsessed.  I love their tribal earthiness and gorgeous texture as well as the warm loveliness they bring to a space.  This one’s definitely on my want list! 

Handmade by the Beni Ouarain tribes in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, these beautiful thick pile rugs typically feature a dark brown or black diamond pattern woven into a creamy foreground.  The subtle geometric pattern and neutral colour palette means they are interesting without being too overwhelming - and they seem to pretty much work in any type of interior.  In fact, I would probably go as far as to say that they are one of the most versatile rugs around – living, dining, bedroom, hallway, nursery or even as a wall hanging – they just work.  And if you’re not convinced, take a look at these pics –

This lounge has all the elements I love:  touch of greenery, some geometric cushions and that rug -

I love the tribal elements in Cassandra Karinsky’s (of KULCHI - who also stock Beni Ouarain rugs too!) Sydney home -

The strong pattern in the rug adds interest to this lounge and works so well with that Butterfly chair -

The rug really pulls together the mix of styles in this dining space -

I love the way the patterns in the artwork mirror the pattern in the rug -

The brown tones in this Beni Ouarain rug enhance the earthy feel of the space -

Here the Beni Ouarain rug paired with the pom-pom blanket adds interest and texture to an otherwise minimal bedroom -

Looks right at home in this New York loft!

The rug brings a lovely cosiness to this nursery -

Don't limit yourself to floors...Beni Ouarain rugs look gorgeous as wall hangings too!

 

Got you convinced now?
