When I moved out of my college dorms and made the transition to my "big girl" graduate housing, I needed furniture desperately. My first purchase? A bright red couch, which I still absolutely adore. I've always been drawn to the gorgeous jewel tones associated with Moroccan culture, and I think the red couch provides a solid foundation on which to build a Moroccan-inspired living room. The lanterns, embossed tin and end tables add touches of Moroccan flair without the room losing its contemporary feel.
I know some people are wary of color, but in this case, the red actually works as a neutral against the khaki, yellow, blue and green. If you were really daring, you could do a light blue (from the rug) on the walls for an even greater saturation of color. Toss a couple of sparkly sari pillows (like these below) on the couch and you're set!
