This Marmoucha wool rug draws its pattern through texture. Low flatweave rivers cross the high ivory pile in the same colour, forming an open geometric design that becomes clearer as the light moves across its surface.

Provenance & Craft

From Atelier des Atlas, this 300 × 200 cm rug combines high wool pile with flatwoven passages. Its design depends on the difference in height between the two surfaces rather than a contrasting colour.

Design Vocabulary

The rivers run diagonally through the field, dividing the pile into broad, irregular shapes. A knotted fringe finishes the photographed end, adding a loose edge to the rug’s structured composition.
