It's true—monochrome is having a moment everywhere you look, from Pinterest to Instagram to your favorite home improvement show. And, while seeing the world in black and white is not always an easy philosophy of life, we believe it is an amazing philosophy of home décor.

The black, white, and gray-toned palette is enticing because it can be light and moody at the same time; statement-making, yet quiet; trendy, yet timeless. Let's take a look at a few key ways you can use this palette to give your space a new look.

It's the Modern Way To Go!

Black and white geometric rug patterning is a signature of the Modern rug aesthetic, bringing a sense of fun and energy to any space. A geometric Moroccan rug in your home's entryway is a great way to make it feel more welcoming.

Elegant and Modern

We're very excited about the resurgence of the contemporary look—it's a long time since the days of the (original) Terminator. The contemporary vibe is rendered in monochrome as organic and enchanting, with a touch of futurism that brightens up any room.

Traditional Flair

Black, white, and gray can be used as a stunning anchor in a room, especially when combined with a bold twist on traditional Moroccan Berber motifs. Try this in your living room or bedroom for a dramatic and delightful look!

Boho All the Way

When it comes to Moroccan boho shags, black and white rugs are essential. The softness and plushiness of the pile, combined with the elegance of the organic (imperfect) designs, truly complements everything. This centuries-old area rugs always appears to be current.
