Spring: The Following Are Tips on How to Arrange Berber Rugs to Refresh Your Space:

When the days start to get longer and the world starts to get brighter, it is time to bring light into your home with lighter-colored authentic Moroccan rugs. Place cream-colored Beni Ourain rugs to boost light reception in the room, making it more spacious. The patterns of the traditional Berber rugs are reminiscent of the season, and the wool used in their creation brings a natural feel to the renewed rooms.

Try to change the place of smaller hand-knotted Azilal rugs to areas exposed to sunlight to capture the spring energy. These symbols and motifs, which are traditional, can be paired with botanicals in ways that make them both a part of nature and crafted art at the same time.

Summer: Cooling Comfort with the Moroccan Traditional Textiles

When the heat comes, alter your Moroccan handmade rug collection to make the rooms comfortable. Berber kilims are perfect for high-traffic areas as they provide elegance while being lightweight and can be laid on wooden floors without much hassle as they do not raise the floor level. Place some small vintage pieces at different locations to bring the interior design of your house to your outdoor spaces, be it patios or covered porches.

Place a number of different-sized authentic Moroccan rugs to create different zones while still maintaining flow between them. Although Beni Ourain rugs are best placed to enhance natural light, their wool material can help regulate room temperature and make summer comfortable.

Autumn: Cozy Comfort with Vintage Moroccan Wool Rugs

Autumn is the season that more closely resembles the traditional hand-knotted Berber carpets with their rich textures and deeper colors. Use Azilal rugs that have bold geometrical designs and bright colors to define seating areas. The Beni Ourain rugs have a high pile, helpful when the temperature is cold, while their patterns are neutral and blend well with autumn-themed decor.

To create the feeling of intimate conversation areas, stack different sizes of vintage Moroccan rugs to create textures and comfort on the floors of your home.

Winter: Cozy Comfort with Hand-Knotted Berber Carpets

During the winter season, it becomes difficult to imagine any room being complete without the beautiful Moroccan wool rugs both as accents and for comfort. Place bigger Beni Ourain rugs on the floors of living rooms, especially on wooden floors, to provide shade and comfort. Put a couple of Azilal rugs in reading corners or bedrooms to construct comfortable retreats where one can escape the cold.

The geometry and shaggy surface of Berber rugs contribute to the warmth of rooms, while those made from natural wool provide comfort during the coldest season.
