Moroccan style

As summer slowly wraps us up in its warm rays, I’ve been noticing more and more on my favourite blogs that designers are bringing a taste of Morocco into their home. I love this trend – it’s a great way of incorporating colour into your space and there are so many beautiful patterns and fabrics that go along with it.

Here are a few ideas of how to bring a piece of North Africa into your home…

In the living room

Moroccan style is all about being laid-back and letting colours and patterns clash. That’s why it’s a great idea to bring the look into your living room. This is a place to relax, and I’d recommend upholstering your sofa in bright and beautiful Moroccan fabric. Add some beautiful cut out lamps for real atmosphere.

In the bathroom

I adore this beautiful patterned sink. You can source this from an antique shop or if you have time you can bring one back from a trip to Marrakech. This will really brighten up your morning while you brush your teeth.

In the conservatory

Tiles are a huge trend for 2015, and this beautiful, almost mosaic style is Moroccan through and through. If you’re looking to brighten up your conservatory this summer, why not commit to this beautiful look? If not, just add tiles to one wall to create a feature focal point.

In the garden

There’s no better place to relax in the summer than in your garden. Make it into a Moroccan haven with floor cushions. You can source gorgeous fabrics from all over the UK, going to fabric fairs and antique markets where you can find lamps to match. Quick, easy and you can always store away the cushions once winter hits.
