Morocco and House Design


Here it is...a picture of Moroccan house, Moroccan-house-to-be. (Click on it, to see it a little better).
For those of you who have never been to Morocco...it might seem, well...a bit much. But I promise you, it fits right in - from the dome to the arches. But it's still very special, to me at least, as I am sure you can understand.
What do you think? Please, be kind....if you can. If you can't I will put on my bullet proof vest. I have one left over from my trips to Iraq, deep sigh

Moroccan design is color-saturated with spicy shades of yellow, reds and oranges infused with complicated traditional geometric shapes and luxurious textures and patterns. Being at the coastal crossroads of Europe and Africa, it represents many cultures, traditions and styles, and has long provided inspiration for artists and designers captivated by its symbiosis of styles.


A Mediterranean home can combine not only many cultural traditions such as Moorish motifs with modern Spanish elegance, but layers of various fabrics, intricate lighting accents, and ornate mirrors, baskets and other accessories. Mediterranean design is flexible in the use of accents and colors which allows every participant to create their own unique style.
If you are looking to bring some magic and a sense of the exotic into your home, visit Casablanca Market for authentic handcrafted goods and one of a kind items imported directly from skilled artisans in Marrakech. We feature Moroccan accents and furniture at great prices, and unlike many other merchants all of our items were bought following fair trade policies.
