At Home with Veere Grenney in Tangier - Part 1 The House

Tag along to Tangier for a behind the scenes visit with designer Veere Grenney at Gazebo, his extraordinary Moroccan home where his sophisticated style and well traveled eye have culminated in an intoxicating exotic paradise. See how Veere’s mix of international influences and years of experience result in a home that he describes as his “ultimate expression of beauty.” Hear how Tangier’s climate, people and artistic culture drew Veere to find a permanent home on The Old Mountain, overlooking the sea, with expansive views across to Spain and Gibraltar. Watch to learn how Veere embraced eclectic combinations of fabrics and furniture for a home that is supremely personal and effortlessly walks the line between refined and artisanal, with contributions of master craftsmen from both Morocco and England. Without a specific plan in mind, Veere’s design for Gazebo materialized instinctively. Learn how his love of colonial buildings and Regency architecture informed his choices, with stepped terraces leading down to his magnificent gardens (to be revealed in part 2 next week). For more on Gazebo and Veere’s two other homes, be sure to put his new book, Seeking Beauty, on your list, published by our video sponsor Vendome Press - link below.

This is literally the first time that Susanna has been quiet and thoroughly inhaling all...the treasures of a home. It's like osmosis of trying to capture every detail of this gem. ❤

“It’s modest but it keeps on giving everyday.” What a wonderful truth thought about geraniums. He is a kindhearted man who has created a truly beautiful place. Thank you for this.

Such a beautiful, comforting home, a place to cosy up with the books, the wood fire, the dogs, and a nice cup of tea. The view is amazing, the shades of blue in the sky and sea are so gorgeous! I am very glad that you are doing a part 2 on just the garden because that is one of the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. Many English people are extremely talented gardeners. Thank you very much Veere for opening up your beautiful home in Morocco for us. Thank you to Stacey and Susanna for filming and bringing us around. Magnificent house! Love to you all.❤

The setting and gardens are close to the best in the world!

[oltedders]

OMG, I didn't realize it's a newer house, not a traditional Moroccan house that's had every last trace of traditional architecture remodeled out of it. I was expecting a completely restored traditional home in the Medina.
What a pleasant surprise!
Addendum: These interiors are so calm. Everything has its place, and not one thing shouts "look at me" they just say "I'm here".

[ronwren]

Love the longer format.But with a home like that, you could film for hours and hours and still want more and more.Heaven on earth.Thank you ladies for sharing this remarkable home with us.I'm going to go water my meager porch plants now.

[lonenugget]
