Imagine the blend of African, Berber, and Islamic culture. Cold colourful tiles underfoot and plush cushions in richly textured fabrics lie on cedar moucharabi furniture. Pierced metal, coloured glass and brass lamps hanging overhead. Seating, tables, and accessories are shaped in hexagonal, octagonal and arched forms and patterns.

| John Paul and Talitha Getty in Morocco |
I was always fascinated by John Paul and Talitha Getty. They lived the absolute hippy lifestyle of the rich in Morocco entertaining the jet set and indulging in everything that the 70s had to offer - sex, drugs and rock & roll. Sadly, Talitha died of a heroin overdose. However I thought she never looked as stunning in this Lichfield photograph taken on the rooftop of their home in Casablanca.
