London-based architecture firm Areen Hospitality has been selected to craft the interiors of the forthcoming JW Marriott in Tetouan, Morocco. Located alongside the Marina Smir yacht harbor, the 242,188-square-foot, 5-Star property will mark the brand’s debut in the country.
Housing 194 guestrooms, three restaurants, and a spa, the hotel’s design will feature soft colors and fabrics with handtufted rugs accenting public spaces alongside richly detailed screens. Locally sourced marble and timber will complement geometric Arabic patterns highlighted in the floor and wall finishes.
“Inspiration for the design of the interiors is drawn from traditional Moroccan patterns, materials, and heritage. Alongside respecting these values, we wanted to provide an elegant and sophisticated interior offering a warm welcome to all hotel guests,” says Eugenia Rolando, an associate at Areen Hospitality.
