Casablanca guest room

Built in 1925, the Figueroa Hotel in Los Angeles preserves its original Spanish-Moroccan style. Deep amber hues and sultry reds suggest how Casablanca might appear in color. The entry table and platform bed exhibit gorgeous metal detailing. A hanging tapestry mimics the ornate architecture transporting you overseas. Top the look off with a warm lanterns and a gilded mirror.

Suspended surprise

Will Wick (wickdesign.com) designed this bedroom completely white. Three Moroccan elements save the room from being too neutral. The hanging lantern provides the right amount of warmth. At the foot of the bed sits a small curved stool. Hang out in the suspended lounge, draped in sheepskin.

Globally plush

Shaggy, white rugs with black geometric designs warm up the modern-industrial loft. They’re great because they can work anywhere with other textures and colors layered on top. We dub this bedroom Moroccan modern. The indigo chair and bright textile on the bed incorporate the cultural vibe we love. More subtle, the faceted lamp shade translates the traditional lantern into a contemporary design.

Outdoor oasis

Create your own backyard oasis with cultural elements. An overgrown wisteria vine creates a lush atmosphere. Bring the indoors out with a deep red rug. Above the table, a candlelit Moroccan lantern illuminates the space for a glorious nighttime hangout.
