Dario Locatelli transforms a riad into a luxurious retreat that combines Moroccan craftsmanship with modern elegance – a one-of-a-kind sanctuary in the Medina.
A deep appreciation for the historical and cultural context defines Dario Locatelli’s work. The designer aims to create spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Incorporating local materials and traditional craftsmanship is a cornerstone of his concepts. In transforming the riad into a luxurious retreat, Locatelli focused on opulence, drawing inspiration from the city’s 18th-century history.
Moroccan elegance
The six individually designed suites are characterised by intricately decorated door frames, magnificent columns and earthy tones. The refined blend of Moroccan and Oriental elements includes handmade ceramics and elaborately tiled arches. Exuding elegance and serenity, the ambience offers both artists and travellers an unparalleled experience in the heart of the Medina.
