Vintage Boujad Moroccan Rug, Bohemian Meets Midcentury Bauhaus

About the Item

20076 Vintage Boujad Moroccan Rug, 05'02 x 08'04. Boujad rugs originate from the Khouribga region nestled in the Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Handwoven by Berber tribes, notably the Haouz and Rehamna, these carpets boast vibrant colors, elaborate geometric patterns, and meaningful symbols. Renowned for their dynamic designs, Boujad rugs blend vivid hues with intricate shapes, creating captivating visual compositions. Each rug represents a fusion of artistic expression and cultural tradition, reflecting the creativity and heritage of its weavers. Embraced for their unique beauty and meticulous craftsmanship, Boujad rugs adorn floors as functional masterpieces and enliven interior spaces as decorative treasures.​ This vintage Boujad Moroccan area rug, meticulously hand-knotted from wool, showcases a captivating blend of asymmetrical graphics and color blocks, echoing the principles of both Midcentury Modern and Bauhaus design. Its design, featuring ambiguous organic shapes alongside geometric elements like rods, rectangles, squares, and cubes, speaks to the fusion of two iconic styles. Four horizontal bands, each adorned with four stripes, disrupt the vertical flow, adding dynamism reminiscent of Bauhaus principles while maintaining the clean lines characteristic of Midcentury Modern aesthetics. Inspired by luminaries such as Hans Hofmann, Gunta Stolzl, and Paul Klee, this vintage Moroccan rug embraces a balanced palette that seamlessly integrates warm and cool tones, embodying the essence of both design movements. The juxtaposition of Bauhaus's penchant for bold primary colors with Midcentury Modern's affinity for natural hues results in a visually striking yet harmonious composition. It's a testament to the timeless appeal and adaptability of these design philosophies, offering a rug that not only serves as a functional accent but also as a piece of art that enriches any space with its sophistication and depth. As it evokes the spirit of both Midcentury Modern and Bauhaus, this vintage Boujad Moroccan rug becomes more than just a floor covering—it becomes a statement piece that reflects the evolution of design through the 20th century. Its fusion of clean lines, geometric forms, and a balanced color palette creates an ambiance that is both inviting and intellectually stimulating. Whether placed in a contemporary living room or a minimalist workspace, this woven wonder brings a touch of artistic flair and historical resonance, elevating the ambiance with its timeless elegance and design ingenuity. Rendered in variegated shades of red, beige, aqua, black, brown, taupe, baby blue, brick red, charcoal, sky blue, and rust with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Morocco.
