Creative Residency Venue
in Marrakech
The Long Table Marrakech is a fully privatised site in the Agafay desert, 40 minutes from Marrakech, for creative residencies of artists, designers, studios and writers: one group per evening or day, nobody else on site. Our team takes care of everything, from transfers and catering to scenography, with one point of contact and a proposal within 24 hours.

Material research, prototypes and scenography tests on open ground, under a very large sky.
Writers and editorial teams
A quiet place to write, edit or plan a project together, with meals taken at a shared table.
Creative studios and agencies
A team offsite to develop a concept, a collection or a campaign, away from the usual rhythm.
