Meryanne Loum-Martin Discusses Inside Marrakesh at MahoganyBooks
By MahoganyBooks
The African Diaspora is represented beautifully all across the world and we are excited to welcome entrepreneur, boutique hotel owner and respected tastemaker, Meryanne Loum-Martin. Her spellbinding Jnane Tamsna oasis in Marrakesh is the epitome of beauty, culture, and relaxation. Join us for this wonderful discussion about the richness of Marrakesh hosted by our co-owner/founder, Ramunda Young.
About the Book: This exquisite book showcases the stunning properties of the world's leading design connoisseurs who have transformed Marrakesh's exotic style into unexpected but elegant expressions. The story of design in Marrakesh begins with the contributions of Bill Willis, Yves Saint Laurent, and Pierre Berg�, who fearlessly fused Moroccan elements--zellige tilework, rugs, pottery, fountains, woodwork, metalwork, and tadelakt wall treatments--with a luxuriant mix of furnishings from around the world. Full of personal insights, Loum-Martin explores how international design-savvy individuals continue to incorporate such exuberant designs in their work.
Today's Marrakesh style appeals to a wide variety of tastes--from formal to quirky, from rustic to refined--and is suitable for diverse settings. Eco-friendly materials, including earthenware and natural fibers, contribute to these appealing interiors and gardens. Superbly photographed, Inside Marrakesh abounds with a wealth of unique design ideas.

Lauded in publications such as Town & Country and Architectural Digest, she has designed porcelain dinnerware for Meissen and an outdoor furniture collection.
