https://www.decorativecollective.com/dealers/gallery-yacouBeni Ourain rugs originate in the Taza region of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, woven by the Beni Ourain people, and are well-known for the exceptional quality of their wool, produced by sheep raised by the same Berber tribe. They stand out for the refined simplicity of their designs, typically a black geometric motif over a white ground, originally made popular by such designers as Alvar Aalto and Le Corbusier.
This contemporary piece is a Mid-Century Modernist-inspired reimaging of these iconic Moroccan rugs, featuring a creative irregular pattern, in wonderfully crisp drawing, over earthy-toned high-grade wool – it boasts a remarkably fine weave, lending a crisp clarity to its minimalist design. Its monochrome palette gives the carpet a sense of understated elegance, which lends itself well to a contemporary or mid-century interior.
A sleek modernist piece, to add character to any setting.
