African project Radisson Blu , Marrakesh – Morocco

Atelier Pod focused on the design layout before looking for the aesthetic DNA . The purpose was to repeal the separation between the bathroom and the bedroom , and make a typical object of the eastern Arab language : the mousharabieh screen , the design highlight of the room .

The sliding screen cuts a white monolithic bloc , creating an elegant separation between the bathroom and bedroom , showing on one side a vanity counter and on the other , a dressing table . The elegance is in the use of the mousharabieh , and the extension of its perspective behind a mirror which provides a visual connection between the bedroom and the bathroom . The dressing is the second master piece of the room , designed as a multifunctional carved monolithic bloc , used as bathroom storage with a corner mini-bar column .
The holistic design idea of the room is the harmonious blend between ethnic patterns and classical Arabian Geometrics . The distortion of patterns and their large glossy effect is what creates full and empty spaces incarnating the closet and contrasting the primitive ethnic patterns on the wallpaper .
