Looking for moroccan decor ideas with a little something extra? Think green patterned tiles, round poufs and lanterns with gorgeous cutout details.
These images range from an elaborate courtyard to simple corners, with a few broader decorating ideas you can borrow for your own rooms.
You can keep things simple or go all out with patterns. Start with a detail you love, whether that’s a blue doorway print or a bright cushion, then work it into what you already have.
Moroccan-inspired spaces and details worth saving
carved table and colorful rug
We’re starting off strong with this carved coffee table and colorful rug. I love the round brown pouf with its pale stitched lines.
The cream sofa leaves plenty of room for all that pattern.

Try a patterned cushion on your own plain sofa if you want a smaller place to start.
courtyard fountain and tall arches
How gorgeous is this courtyard? There’s so much to look at, from the tiny fountain tiles to the tall white arches and patterned seating.
You don’t need to recreate the whole courtyard to borrow an idea. Try arranging low seating around a small round table, with plants tucked behind it.
blush arch behind the bed
This bedroom may just be one of my favorites here. I love the scalloped outline behind the dusty rose headboard.
The large round hanging light is just as pretty.
For a smaller change, try striped bedding with a black-and-white geometric cushion and a muted green accent pillow.
green tiles and a gold-tone light
I am obsessed with these glossy green tiles beside the rosy floor tiles. The shower walls are a warm beige, with a little arched niche inside.
The gold-tone hanging light is the detail I’d keep. Its cutout pattern looks so lovely beside the simple white basin.
simple dining nook
Don’t want pattern on every surface? This dining nook takes a much simpler direction, with pale walls, exposed ceiling beams and a dark round pendant.
It isn’t distinctly Moroccan on its own, but you could use a similarly pared-back room as a starting point for patterned dishes or a decorative tray.
amber tiles inside an arch
The amber-colored tiles are so pretty in this arched bar nook. I love how the curved marks repeat behind the shelves, with little blue accents mixed into the display.
If you want to borrow the color combination, try blue drinking glasses beside an amber vase on an open shelf.
tall mirror and leafy branches
If you are looking for something simple to put together, this entryway arrangement is worth saving. A tall decorative mirror sits above a narrow console with books, bowls and leafy branches.
For your own version, leave a little empty space between the objects rather than filling the whole tabletop.
brown pouf with pale stitching
How cute is this round pouf? Not gonna lie, the star-shaped stitching in the middle is my favorite part!
Here it sits beside a low table on a multicolored rug. Try a similar brown pouf if you want one simple piece among your patterned accessories.
red cushions against blue
Who else loves this red and blue pairing? The pale blue wall looks so pretty behind the striped seat and rows of patterned cushions.
There are lanterns, little bowls and a teapot arranged around the low seating. I’d start with the red cushions and a round tray table if you want to try a smaller version.
blue patterned stair risers
The pattern fans are going to love this! Instead of plain risers, these stairs have a mix of blue, turquoise and white designs.
Keep the surrounding walls and railing simple if you’re planning something similar. The little stars and floral shapes already give you plenty to look at.
breakfast on a round tray
This is such a pretty way to set out breakfast. White cups and folded napkins sit beside a silver-tone teapot on a large round tray.
I especially love the detailed rim. Try a decorative tray on a low table for your own tea setup.
low seating by the window
I love this little window corner with its cream shaggy surfaces and dark geometric lines. The red striped cushion adds just enough color.
There are plants hanging above and a larger leafy plant behind the seating. If you have a bright corner, this is a lovely arrangement to borrow.
cream fringe and sparkle
Don’t want to add bright colors to your bedroom? No problem!
This bed keeps things pale with a tall tufted headboard and a cream throw covered in fringe and shiny details.
The rows of sparkle are my favorite part. A decorative throw like this could be your one extra layer over plain bedding.
scalloped white doorway
Sometimes the doorway is all the decoration you need. I love the pointed top and rounded sides of this opening against the plain white wall.
If you’re planning a renovation, save this as a shape reference. There’s no need to surround an opening like this with lots of wall decor.
basket wall above the sofa
If you are looking for lots of wall decor inspo, then this one is for you. There are round baskets in different sizes, with black and white patterns mixed among the tan ones.
I love the pink cushions and brown stitched pouf below them. Try laying out your basket arrangement on the floor before deciding where everything should hang.
blue doorway wall art
You don’t need an ornate doorway at home to enjoy this look. This artwork shows a blue door surrounded by intricate white details, with a row of teal curved tiles above.

Choose a doorway print like this if you want to bring in those colors without changing your walls.
ornate folding screen
I am obsessed with the detail on this dark folding screen. The panels have tiny openwork patterns from top to bottom, plus decorative curved tops.
A screen like this could separate a dressing corner from the rest of your bedroom. I’d keep nearby furniture simple so you can enjoy all those little details.
green glasses and yellow napkins
How pretty is this table setting? The green bowls and drinking glasses look lovely with mustard yellow napkins.
There’s even a lemon placed in the bowl.
Try the same green-and-yellow pairing for your next table setup. The pale sculptural vases are another detail worth borrowing if you like a less patterned look.
glowing lantern on a curled bracket
This lantern may just be my favorite little detail on the list. I love the floral cutouts and the curled black bracket holding it against the pale wall.
For your own corner, try a decorative lantern with a battery-powered light inside. You can enjoy the glow without adding an open flame.
green patterned fireplace surround
Last but definitely not least, we have this gorgeous green fireplace surround. I love the pale trailing shapes across the front and the tiny geometric patterns down the side.
The arched opening has its own dark-and-white pattern too. Save this one if you want a fireplace design with plenty of color rather than a plain surround.
