Around the World in Seven Beds: Riffing on Tradition at Rosemary Marrakech

The five-room riad makes use of playful ceramics that put a postmodern spin on ancient Mediterranean iconography.

At Rosemary, a Marrakech riad where the hotel’s namesake herb perfumes the hammam, the swimming pool serves as a gathering spot for guests morning, noon, and night. The hotel’s five rooms and public spaces double as showcases for the design team Lrnce, whose ceramics, they say, put a playful, postmodern spin on the iconography of the ancient Mediterranean.

Laurence Leenaert and Ayoub Boualam of Lrnc, a Marrakech-based lifestyle brand focused on handmade ceramics and textiles, highlight items that can help you channel the aesthetic they crafted for the intimate Rosemary riad.
