Surrounded by ancient olive trees and extensive gardens, Villa Lavender (in Arabic meaning Alkhozama) is a two-bedroomed villa, which combines contemporary design with local materials, strong Moroccan colours and traditional craftsmanship. The house was designed by one of Morocco’s most renowned architects, Karim el Achak, from Agence Architecture Associati of Marrakech, with bespoke furniture and lighting by Colefax and Fowler’s design director, Philip Hooper. The villa descends from ground level to a lower level opening onto a twelve metre pool, with a large daybed and sun loungers. There is a shaded dining area, a living room with an open fire and a dining room with a domed ceiling with a vintage Moroccan light found in the souks.
