29 Moroccan Bedroom Ideas
Alright, let’s talk about something magical for a second — Moroccan bedrooms.
If you’ve ever seen one, you know they look like something straight out of a bohemian dream.
Whether you’re redoing your entire space or just want a touch of Moroccan magic, I’ve rounded up 29 Moroccan bedroom ideas that’ll make your space feel like a stylish escape in Marrakech.
Ready? Let’s get your bedroom glowing — literally.
1. Layered Textiles Galore
If Moroccan design had a motto, it’d be “the more textures, the better.”
Pile on rugs, throws, and cushions in different fabrics — silk, velvet, cotton. Mix patterns fearlessly. Ever tried layering two rugs? Total game-changer. It instantly makes your bedroom look collected, not cluttered.
2. Go Bold with Jewel Tones
Forget beige-on-beige minimalism for a moment. Moroccan bedrooms thrive on deep blues, emerald greens, ruby reds, and burnt oranges. Try painting an accent wall in sapphire or swapping out your bedding for something richly colored. It’s like wrapping your room in a sunset.
3. Mosaic Magic
Nothing screams Moroccan like mosaic tiles. Use them as a headboard backdrop, side table surface, or even a wall accent. They add instant character and a hint of “I traveled to Morocco last summer” energy (even if you didn’t).
4. Lantern Lighting
Ditch your plain lamp and hang Moroccan lanterns. The light filters through the intricate cutouts, creating stunning shadows on your walls. Pro tip: mix hanging and tabletop lanterns for a layered glow that feels romantic but not too “date night cliché.”
5. Low-Lying Beds
Moroccan bedrooms often feature low or floor-level beds. It’s casual yet elegant — like you’re lounging in a riad in Marrakech. Pair with oversized cushions and a soft rug underfoot for that effortlessly cozy vibe.
6. Intricate Headboards
Ever seen those carved wooden headboards that look like art pieces? That’s pure Moroccan charm. If you can’t find one, DIY it with a stenciled wall design or a large patterned screen behind your bed. Instant wow-factor.
7. Metallic Accents
Gold, brass, or copper — metallic accents are non-negotiable here. From mirror frames to light fixtures, these warm tones complement the earthy palette perfectly. Bonus: they make your space feel instantly more luxurious.
8. Patterned Rugs
Layering rugs might sound extra, but in Moroccan decor, it’s basically a requirement. Go for geometric or tribal-patterned rugs. The trick? Choose colors that complement, not match. Mismatched in the best way.
9. Arched Doorways & Windows
If you’re renovating, add an arched doorway or window frame. It’s one of the most recognizable Moroccan architectural details. Not remodeling? You can fake it with an arched mirror or wall decal — same vibe, less effort.
10. Statement Mirrors
Moroccan mirrors are like jewelry for your walls. Go for ornate brass or silver frames with carved detailing. Hang one over your dresser or even as a centerpiece above the bed. It’s a subtle touch that screams sophistication.
11. Boho-Moroccan Fusion
Love boho but want a little Moroccan flair? Combine both! Think macramé wall hangings, earthy ceramics, and colorful rugs. The result feels laid-back yet exotic — like Coachella meets Casablanca.
12. Ceiling Details
Ever looked up and thought your ceiling could use a little love? Add painted patterns, wood beams, or even hanging fabric drapes. Moroccan bedrooms often treat ceilings as part of the design, not just the lid of the room.
13. Cushioned Corners
Create a cozy seating nook with floor cushions and poufs. It’s a great place to sip tea or scroll on your phone while pretending you’re on a Moroccan getaway.
14. Canopy Beds
A canopy draped in sheer fabric instantly adds romance and mystique. Choose a warm-toned sheer fabric like ivory or blush to soften the space. It’s equal parts elegant and dreamy.
15. Woven Baskets & Storage
Storage doesn’t have to be boring. Use woven baskets for throws, plants, or extra pillows. They add natural texture while keeping clutter at bay. Plus, they look effortlessly stylish — win-win.
16. Desert-Inspired Neutrals
Not into bold colors? No worries. Try sand, terracotta, ivory, and ochre tones for a more understated Moroccan feel. It’s calm, grounded, and still gives you that exotic warmth.
17. Layered Curtains
Double up on curtains — sheer ones for softness and heavier, patterned ones for drama. Moroccan bedrooms love rich textiles that move beautifully with the breeze. Bonus: it gives you privacy and style in one go.
18. Earthy Plaster Walls
Textured walls = Moroccan masterpiece. Try limewash or tadelakt plaster finishes for that authentic touch. They reflect light differently, giving your space a soft, lived-in glow.
19. Handcrafted Furniture
Moroccan style celebrates craftsmanship. Choose hand-carved nightstands, inlaid dressers, or metal-framed stools. These pieces tell a story — and IMO, that’s what makes a bedroom feel special.
20. Tasseled Everything
From cushions to blankets to curtains, tassels and fringe are everywhere in Moroccan design. They add movement, texture, and that playful boho twist. (FYI, if you go overboard, no one’s judging.)
21. Mix Old and New
Don’t think you need a time machine to create this look. Combine vintage finds with modern touches — like a brass lamp beside a minimalist bed frame. That balance keeps it chic, not theme-park-y.
22. Moroccan Tile Headboard
Want a bold feature wall? Try a Moroccan tile mosaic headboard. It’s vibrant, artsy, and completely unique. Just make sure the rest of the decor stays simple so it can shine.
23. Plants Everywhere
Nothing softens all those patterns like a bit of green. Add palms, succulents, or hanging vines. It brings life (literally) to the space and feels like an oasis in your own home.
24. Layered Bedding
Stack your bed with quilts, throws, and oversized pillows. Mix prints and fabrics until it feels cozy but not chaotic. The goal: make your bed look so good you want to skip your morning alarm entirely.
25. Statement Art
Moroccan bedrooms often include handcrafted or cultural art — think desert landscapes, calligraphy, or geometric pieces. Hang a few on a gallery wall or go big with one bold piece above the bed.
26. Pendant Clusters
Why stop at one light fixture when you can have three? Cluster Moroccan pendant lights in varying sizes for a dramatic look. The soft golden glow at night? Unreal.
27. Brass Trays & Decor
Scatter a few brass trays or bowls on your dresser or bedside table. They’re perfect for jewelry, candles, or even perfume bottles. Plus, they tie the whole Moroccan theme together effortlessly.
28. Perfumed Ambiance
Scent matters. Use incense, amber-scented candles, or essential oil diffusers to create that warm, mysterious aroma. It’s one of those small details that transport you instantly.
29. Go Maximal (or Minimal)
Here’s the twist — Moroccan style works both ways. Go maximalist with layered rugs, colorful walls, and ornate lighting, or keep it minimalist with neutral tones and just a few intricate details. Either way, the essence remains: warmth, comfort, and character.
Tips for Pulling It All Together
Before you start redecorating like you’re auditioning for an HGTV show, here are a few key tips to keep things balanced:
- Stick to 3–4 core colors. Too many can feel chaotic.
- Mix textures, not chaos. Balance shiny metal with soft fabrics.
- Play with lighting. Moroccan decor thrives on mood lighting.
- Don’t forget comfort. This style is luxurious, yes, but it’s also meant to feel lived in.
My Takeaway?
Moroccan bedrooms aren’t just about aesthetics — they’re about atmosphere. It’s the kind of space that invites you to slow down, sip some mint tea, and maybe journal your “finding inner peace” moment.
I once transformed my dull, gray bedroom with just a lantern, a colorful rug, and some throw pillows — and it felt like an entirely new world. You don’t need to go full riad to capture that magic. Sometimes, just one or two Moroccan-inspired elements are enough to give your space that enchanting glow.
