A white-walled city perched between Morocco and Europe, Tangier was long a haven for the literary and artistic avant-garde – and black sheep – of Europe and America. Now a new generation of residents are blending color, pattern, and taste to create an interior aesthetic all their own. Inside Tangier explores a selection of these exceptional properties and their eccentric inhabitants – from antiques dealer and collector Gordon Watson and cook and artist Soufian Lezaar to the late fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent and antiques dealer Christopher Gibbs – providing rare insights into the sometimes bohemian, sometimes extravagant, but always stylish “Tangerine” lifestyle.

Industry Reviews

"An enthralling new book looks inside the most stylish homes of Tangier."--VOGUE.com
"Baldissera, a renowned interior designer and Tangier transplant, takes us on a tour of the most beautiful homes in this Moroccan city in his lavish and delicious book."--Forbes.com
"It's the Moroccan city that has long attracted a bohemian class of folk from Europe and America. . . . This volume looks at some of the city's more recent inhabitants. . . . Readers learn fast while the city remains alluring."--Milieu
"The homes, gardens, and rooms documented are mouthwateringly beautiful. . . . All make you desperate to be friends with these chic designers, and all convince you that the joy many get just from walking the streets of Tangier is a blissful ignorance as they'll rarely get to see the kaleidoscopic wonders arrayed being the often simple street doors."--The Daily Beast
