Painting a Chez Ali Moroccan floor design is also an interesting way to enhance the feel of a room. Check out the punch of color from those vibrant pinks and oranges in happy customer Rita’s kitchen! It’s refreshing to see such an intricate pattern stenciled on the floor, rather than the expected wall. What a pleasant surprise to greet your feet!

Statt Hotel (Statthaus) in Germany shared their design dilemma. “For years people tried to talk me into tiling the kitchen walls (more practical!) but as the apartments are not so big and the kitchens are open to the living areas I did not want to do it. That way the whole apartment would have felt like a kitchen.” She decided stenciling was the perfect design solution! By only stenciling certain areas of the kitchen, she was able to keep the design light, easy and not as structured as tile would have made it. Our Intricate Zelij Moroccan Stencil  definitely adds a sunny yellow touch of Moroccan pattern the open layout of this kitchen!
