Last week I went for a mini-trip to my friend Ank in Marrakech and stayed in her amazing green and relaxed oasis in the middle of the Medina.

A short work-holiday, just between the CC & GG workshops, to shoot the interior of the hotel for the new website of Chambres d'Amis, which will be updated soon.

Besides shooting, styling and a 'flowerday' for a few days, I enjoyed immensely to be together with my dear friend & partner in crime Ank in Marrakech. Love this place!

Here's a small preview. Once the website is updated, I will let you know ...

Musing about Marrakech...

~the most friendly and charming shop owner of the [smallest silk shop]* in town.

~the brightly colored moroccan knifes and typical dutch plates at Chambres d'Amis
~the botanical lane to the riad in the middle of the medina

...within 2 weeks I will be back in Morocco for the 3rd cool crochet workshop.

*This photo I took during the cool crochet workshop last October, while my friend Rosa bought some tassels and last week when we were browsing through the Marrakech album, Rosa told me it looks like a painting, so I surprised her with the [smallest silk shop] framed and made an extra print for ourselves.

Riad Chambres d'Amis, situated in the middle of the Medina, is the peaceful and quiet basecamp during the Cool Crochet workshop.
It's a wonderful place to come home to, after a day full impressions in and around the city of Marrakech.

chambre 5

Each room in Chambres d'Amis is decorated quiet & stylish with a few Moroccan details (like the tadelakt walls), but especially with a good sense of humor.

The bathroom of our [chambre 5] is also 'in chambres d'amis style'... Love that plastic string around the towels.

moroccan wood & wool

In the middle of the souk suddenly appeared a wool heaven!
I chose a few of my favorite colors to take home.

The neon pink and orange brought a color explosion on the riad balcony.
(note the matching Bougainville)

riad chill

Fairy tales do exist.
Chilling in the riad is a true relief after the complete chaos of the city.

Verveine or mint tea?

quatre nuits à marrakech

Here I am sitting, perfectly happy in the tasteful and stylish Moroccan house of my super sweet friend Ank.

The last four nights we stayed in her nextdoor riad Chambres d'Amis in the middle of the Medina.

The riad is an oasis of peace and quiet and indulgence!

Whenever we returned from the city, the square or the souk;
It's amazing to experience the contrast of the crowd, the colors, the scents in the Medina and the complete delight of Chambres d'Amis.
