There are better pics on the Internet than in this book for beautiful Moroccan furnishings and decor, e.g. the fancy hotels of Marrakesh.

Not what I expected. There wasn't a lot on how to incorporate moroccan design elements into your home, it's more like how to create a full moroccan home. But still an interesting book.
