The Maison's architecture is a playful interpretation of Arabic architectural elements distilled through foreign eyes. It is inspired by its rich architectural history but purposely does not replicate it. The building’s sculptural form pays homage to the ancient rampart walls of the Marrakech Medina. Like a sandcastle or sculpture, the openings are the buildings transition into a private interior. Deep recesses serve like the ancient Mashrabiya Screens giving privacy to the bedrooms, where the deeper recesses have been implemented.
