A JEWEL BOX IN THE GARDEN
An intimate expression of friendship, craftsmanship and design, our first retail store opens within an octagonal glass pavilion in the entrance gardens of Marrakech’s legendary La Mamounia Hotel.
Designed with our dear friend Gabriella Khalil, the store brings her distinctive eye into our world of color and handwoven textiles. A meeting of perspectives shaped by years of creative collaboration. A place where our worlds meet.
The space brings Moroccan textile traditions into conversation with European vintage design. Glass walls draw the surrounding gardens into a jewel box of handwoven textiles, furniture and objects.
Two hundred meters of sheer, butter-colored curtains, handwoven in Marrakshi Life’s Marrakech atelier, soften locally crafted polished chrome rails and black lacquer cabinetry. A bespoke dégradé carpet by Studio Sana Benzaitar anchors the space, complemented by custom Maison Sarayan furniture upholstered in the brand’s handwoven textiles, a 1960s Tornado chandelier by Elio Martinelli, vintage furniture sourced by Salmane Design, and ceramics by LRNCE.
Together, these pieces bring sculptural forms into dialogue with local craftsmanship.
Residential in spirit and intimate in scale, the store places our handwoven clothing alongside furniture and objects that share its attention to material and making. It is a tribute to the artisans, workshops and creative relationships that shape our world—and a new home for Marrakshi Life in the city where it all began.
Here’s to warm evenings, familiar faces, and every reason to stay a little longer.
