THE RED SCENE

Marrakech wall (Picture by me)

I was on my way to my routine Marrakech hotel in the Palmeraie, and as usual i'm obssessed with palm trees pictures. But when i stopped the car, there was a quiet mood, a small wind making the leafs singing, this long red wall, the washing under the sun and this very old and wanted leather club in the middle. This is how i see morocco, this border line between traditionnal and modern, the colorful way of living. So i'm happy to be able to publish this with you guys and to keep it on my mind for my inspirations.

A QUIET HOME IN MARRAKECH

Before there was a highway to Marrakech before there were riads which turn into guest houses, the red city was quiet and relaxing. I remember Casablanca Road was about 4 hours long for travelers, then all the villages on the road preparing for our arrival: meals, carpet sellers, hats Berber, precious rocks ... Memories in brief. Anyway.
Back to the basics, the marrakchia architecture . Arcades, the zellij, red earth, a patio, a terrace in the shade and lots of carpet. I love the tile with purple shades and readings over the fireplace. This is the classical luxury way of living in Marrakech.
