architecture

Berber Lodge draws its inspiration from traditional Berber architecture.
Created by its owner, Romain Michel-Menière, in collaboration with architects Studio KO and landscape designer Arnaud Casaus, the lodge was built within an old olive grove, using local materials and the skills of local craftsmen.
Earth from the property itself was used to make the adobe bricks, while all the century-old olive trees were carefully preserved.
The ceilings incorporate natural materials, including eucalyptus, Atlas cedar and wild bamboo. The terracotta tiles were specially handmade for Berber Lodge in a neighbouring village.
The interiors reflect the owner’s personal approach to decoration, combining Moroccan craftsmanship with twentieth-century design. Rattan furniture, traditional pottery and antique Berber bridal chests sit alongside a collection of vintage design pieces discovered in Morocco or inherited from the family.
