This backpack is inspired in part by images of robes, rugs, scarves, and shawls from a stellar book, The Fabric of Moroccan Life published in 2002 by the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The color palette is emblematic of the colors used in ancient and modern Moroccan Textiles and clothing. Take the backpack to work or school - it will fit in anywhere.
