Property Overview

Designed as an ode to simplicity and harmony between people and nature, Villa D is the first house built by Studio KO. Karl Fournier and Olivier Marty conceived the villa as a monolithic structure, built from plaster and weathered concrete, set within the Moroccan countryside. Located just fifteen kilometers (about twenty minutes) from Marrakech, the property spans seven hectares of land, including palm trees, olive-tree-lined paths, desert gardens, an animal farm, orchards, and green open spaces. The setting feels removed from the city while remaining easily accessible. Originally built in 2004 as a private home for a Moroccan family, Villa D now hosts tailored stays under the direction of Majd Chetouani. Each stay is designed around the guest, whether for yoga retreats, private events, group gatherings, or family stays, with discreet service and customized planning throughout. The villa includes seven bedrooms in the main house and three additional bedrooms in the Farmhouse, accommodating up to twenty guests. Common spaces are designed for gathering, while still allowing for privacy. Guests also have access to a fully equipped gym, spa, and a range of wellness offerings, including Dr. Barbara Sturm treatments, traditional massages, yoga classes, and private coaching.
