How Moroccan rugs are made

Between a design on screen and a rug on the floor lies a sequence of very concrete decisions: wool selection, colour, loom preparation, knotting, relief, finishing, washing and drying.

How Moroccan rugs are made

From design to making: the stages to understand

Each step influences the next. Colour looks different in fibre than on paper; relief changes light; washing opens the wool and shifts the surface again.

Three points to check

  • Validate colour in fibre
  • Plan relief from the design stage
  • Allow sufficient time for finishing

The Maison’s point of view

That is why the Maison follows a piece from design through finishing rather than treating design and making as separate moments.

For a real project, these references should always be tested against plans, light, use and the constraints of place. The Maison then confirms material, dimensions and feasibility through Project Desk.
