About us
Abwab.shop is a maker & importer of Moroccan doors & wooden home decor specializing in traditional architectural elements and artisanal home decor, with a particular focus on Moorish arches and Moroccan craftsmanship.
The term "Abwab” is the Arabic word for "doors," which reflects the store's specialization in high-end, custom architectural features used to create authentic North African and Islamic-inspired interiors.
Moorish Arches at Abwab
In the context of the Moorish architectural style, the arches provided by Abwab typically feature the following characteristics:
The classic Moorish arch (or horseshoe arch) is a signature element that curves further than a semi-circle, often utilized in doorways and room transitions.
Intricate Carvings: These arches are frequently handcrafted from wood or plaster, featuring geometric patterns, arabesque motifs, and mousharabia (lattice-work) details.
Custom Integration: Abwab.shop focuses on pieces that can be integrated into modern luxury renovations, such as custom-sized archways for hallways, master suites, or outdoor patios.
Beyond structural arches, the shop is associated with a broader range of traditional craftsmanship:
- we do custom kitchen’s cabinets
- we do custom ceiling panels
- we do custom moorish windows
Abwab.shop serves as a bridge for designers and homeowners looking to incorporate the historical aesthetic of al-Andalus and Morocco into contemporary spaces.
