Morocco: Design from Casablanca to Marrakesh by Lisl & Landt Dennis

Living in Morocco: Design from Casablanca to MarrakeshLiving in Morocco: Design from Casablanca to Marrakesh by Landt Dennis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This Coffee Table Book is filled with stunning photographs of rooms decorated with vibrant textiles, landscapes, rooftop gardens, detailed explanations of each photograph.
My husband and I recently went on a vacation in Marrakech Morocco. We saw many beautiful buildings, visited old palaces, gardens and museums. Marrakech is a beautiful city that’s as clean as Disney World! The Moroccan people are openly friendly, the souks and shops that we visited were fabulous and we came home feeling inspired.

While this book was published in 1992, the information within is pages is still very relevant today.

I started reading this “cook book” while my husband and I were staying at the Riad Dar Les Cigognes in Marrakech Morocco earlier this month. We had many meals at our Riad, I was very delight to discover all of which are recipes in this book. I’ve made several of the recipes from this book and am very pleased with how our meals have turned out.
This is the perfect addition to my Travel Book collection.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was first published in 1991. It’s a Coffee Table Book- one filled with stunning photographs. Each page has either a Black & White or Color Photo which is rich in details. The description with each photo tells you the who, what & where is going on.
It’s a beautiful addition to my travel book collection.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

While most people think that I read fiction 24/7, that's really not the case. I read a vast variety of books.

I collect Travel Books on places that I've been to. Sometimes I have to order them online as there aren't any books shops in some of the locations in where I've traveled OR there aren't any books printed in the English language.

My copy is a paperback edition that was printed in China

I found this book to be very comprehensive- covering many different Moroccan color pallets and styles. There are photographs of kitchens, bathrooms, transitional spaces and living spaces plus gardens and rooftop living spaces are covered. It’s given me much inspiration on bringing a bit of Moroccan Design into my own home.
