Taupe Relief Grid — Beni Mrirt Sculpted Checker
Taupe Relief Grid — Beni Mrirt Sculpted Checker (170 × 260 cm)
A contemporary Beni Mrirt in warm taupe, carved into a tactile checker. Plush, velvety pile with a clean, bound edge profile. The sculpted high/low squares catch light and give quiet architectural depth—easy to style, exceptionally soft underfoot.
Glyph Reading
The checked reticulation parcels the field into measured cells—an Amazigh logic of order and protection. A subtle longitudinal join reads as an axis recall, centering the layout. Energetically, the rhythm of relief squares grounds a room while diffusing visual noise.
