Le Royal Mansour
Marrakech, Morocco
“Built with no expense spared...at the behest of Morocco’s King Mohammed VI—it is a veritable showpiece for the country’s traditional artisans and elaborate architectural styles of old.”
Angelina Villa-Clarke | Forbes Travel
le royal mansour
MARRAKECH, MOROCCO
A Standard of Luxury Above Class and Beyond Compare
King Mohammed VI of Morocco requested a resort “hors classe” (above class) and beyond compare for hosting international royalty and heads of state. Our solution was to create a destination beyond luxury itself, a sevenstar destination that radiates Morocco’s unique cultural heritage. Enclosed within the medina and hidden behind walls, Royal Mansour is as precious and mysterious as the city itself, its beauty revealed in layers. Traditional Moroccan riads are placed around courtyards, gardens, and sunken fountains. Guests enjoy absolute privacy and discretion because a discreet network of underground tunnels is accessed only by trusted staff.

The architectural style will be a clean contemporary take on Moroccan identity that offers a luxurious and intimate feeling.

AL HAMRA PALACE HOTEL
JEDDAH, KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA
A Royal Revival Brings A New Story of Heritage & Hospitality
Originally built in the 1950s, Al Hamra Palace was a the most prominent hospitality structure where international public figures and VIP guests were received. Located centrally in Jeddah's corniche the Palace showcases traditional Arab-Islamic architecture and Andalusian-style influences.
Understanding the existing palace from the beginning, OBMI repositioned the palace to once again deliver the royal guest journey of its past. A unique and memorable Porte Cochere was designed as a striking visual focus, providing a cultural showcase for the finest craftsmanship of the country with beautiful proportions and intricate detail. All around, beautiful gardens and landscape tie the Hotel together. Surrounding the Palace, the Royal Villas are a respectful scale to ensure the original Palace remains the regent piece.

Angsana Real de La Quinta Benahavis Marbella SPAIN
Impactful, Evocative, Soulful
Located in the heart of Real de la Quinta, a premier destination in the Marbella hillside, the Angsana Hotel & Residences are perched at the top of a hill, commanding expansive views over the rolling hills below and the blue sea behind. OBMI created a compact plan carefully tailored to respond to the Client's program, regulations, and the complex terrain. The design maximizes long sea views from the Hotel and Residences, which are placed in open U shapes to create two perfectly scaled courtyards where the senses are awakened by the fragrance of the orange trees, the sound of rolling water, and the play of sun and shade. The design honors the mountain landscape, with stepped architecture that hugs the hillside and raised plazas that peer into gardens and pools on lower levels.
The architecture style is contemporary, light and airy, composed of clean lines and simple silhouettes and incorporating elegant references to the local brick wall patterns, and rugged stonework. Angsana is a family oriented brand, and the OBMI design celebrates and fosters family togetherness and experiences for all ages and interests -a moonlit paddle around Real de la Quinta's salt-water lake, a nature hike to explore local flora, time in the fabulous pool, or a family dinner overlooking Marbella's night lights.

Located in Hanoi’s historic French Quarter, just a block from the gardenlined Hoan Kiem Lake, the hotel and offices reflect the area’s Indochinese and French-Colonial influence. After performing extensive research into the city’s culture and history, the design team sought to create an architectural character that bridges modern and traditional styles as visitors flow inside and out. The exterior’s varied massing and heights channel the eclectic parade of shops and restaurants that line the streets of the French Quarter, while the two-story base colonnade reinterprets Hanoi’s traditional French Colonial architecture. These details provide a modern interpretation of the past while also creating its own destination in this prominent section of the city.

Nature-Inspired Wellness
Oriented to restore the body and tap the healing powers of nature’s elements, using the disciplines of Regenerative Medical Wellness and Detoxification, the destination aims to help guests experience deep healing in a natural setting.
Located on a pristine beach front with hilly topography, the project combines a state-of-the art medical wellness center, a wellness resort, and residential offerings, along with nature based amenities - health huts, sea salt water pool, preservation and integration of existing mangrove vegetation. The design is rooted in a sustainable approach, addressing the sensitive components on site, inspiration and respect of the natural site assets, and careful orchestration of the guest experience in arrival and movement throughout the site, and creation of both open and secluded spaces throughout.
