80522 Contemporary Moroccan Style Rug with Postmodern Memphis Style. This hand knotted wool contemporary Moroccan area rug with Postmodern Memphis style features an ambiguous organic shape composed of open ended lozenge filled with lines flanked with a wide V-shape band spread across a two-tone abrashed field. The open-ended lozenge is outlined in black and beige on a rustic peach-salmon striated backdrop flanked by a series of colorful horizontal rectangular bands. The large scale olive V-shape is outlined in cream on a striated sky blue backdrop flanked with vertical bands in alternating colors of black and beige at the end. The tribal symbols of diamonds, lozenges, V-shapes, symbolize womanhood and fertility. The rectangular solid color bands and zigzag lines along the sides traditionally represent snakes, which are seen as a male motif. In traditional Moroccan rugs, male motifs often appear on the outer portions of the composition, framing and enclosing the female motifs. This presentation can be seen as symbolizing fertility, as well as protection and the sanctuary of the family. This depth of meaning presented in a bold, energetic form is what make Moroccan style rugs such as this one such wonderful additions to contemporary interiors. Drawing inspiration from the Berber Tribes of Morocco and their ancient symbolism combined with Ettore Sottsass, Shiro Kuramata, Michael Graves, and Massimo Iosa Ghini, this Moroccan area rug embodies postmodern style and bold form. Perfect for adding organic tactile sensations to a living room, front room, billiards room, bedroom, family room, game room, playroom, study, studio, office, sitting room, children's area, nursery, man cave, rumpus room, or theater room.
