ALLEN GINSBERG’S SIMPLE WAY OF LIFE is the inspiration behind this first floor room of effortlessly uncomplicated beauty. Aptly located just beyond our library, an exposed hardwood-beam ceiling stretches to meet the towering cobalt blue bedhead, over a grey blue hexagonal terracotta tiled floor with hand-cut zellige border inlay.
Introduction
Built-in wardrobes divide the space between bedroom and bathroom allowing the humble beauty of the ancient timber-beam ceiling to continue unobstructed, above. Step through to a walk-in tadelakt lined wet-room which features a vanity basin, WC and a walk-in rain-shower set against zellige tiled walls in taupe and beige hues.
ALLEN also faces the central courtyard and its fountain and is ideally situated for either a light lunch, visiting Bill’s Bar or an afternoon in the tea lounge.
