Berber textiles aren’t just a feast for the eyes—they’re a form of language. In this article, we look at how meaning, myth, and message are embedded in every line.
The Power of Symbolic Craft
Rugs weren’t made for decoration—they were made to mark births, protect homes, and tell life stories. Every colour and form had a reason. In many tribes, these designs were spiritual tools.
Storytelling Across Generations
Patterns passed from mother to daughter carried family history. Some motifs protected against evil. Others were blessings for fertility, harvest, or healing.
Digitising the Invisible
When creating digital patterns, our goal isn’t just to trace—it’s to transmit meaning. Every element in our collections is researched, titled, and annotated so that designers carry the story, not just the shape.
Why Designers Should Care
Because when you use visual elements with integrity, you build trust and depth in your brand. You’re not just creating—you’re continuing a story.
