EDITORIAL DEEP DIVE
L’architecture comme langage
Moroccan architecture is best read through relationships: threshold, courtyard, shade, ornament, craft and movement. A medina is not only a collection of buildings; it is an urban sequence where streets, doors, riads, fountains and workshops create changing scales of experience.
Look for the transition from public street to quieter courtyard, the geometry of zellige, carved plaster and cedar, and the way light is controlled rather than simply maximised.
