Product Description
Colorfully ethnic and stylishly urban, Morocco is a visually sophisticated nation. By the time this unique Islamic nation emerged into the modern world, history had begun to recognize the importance of ancient artistic traditions. Emphasizing the basic concept that design has become a marriage of decorative object and architectural space, Morocco Modern highlights the details that lend character to these traditions. 150 full-color photos.

Format:Paperback
The colours, shapes and textures of Morocco are sumptously displayed in this book. As an interior designer, I found the book both inspirational and stunningly useful. The close-up detailing of "mouchearabieh screens"; plasterwork, tiling, weaving, zeligs, doorframes, furniture, flowers, etc show things that other books on Morocco just hint at - and force you to squint at! If you need to create a Moroccan interior FAST, and don't have the time to go to Morocco, Ypma's book is a lifesaver. You can even mix the paint colours using the pictures as reference. Cheers Herbert! The mint tea's on me!

The richness of the colors, the incredible patterns for the tiles, the bountiful King's Palmeraie... I was just inspired. Immensily superior to Moroccan Interiors, better photos and no comparison in terms of the text

Format:Paperback
As an A4 sized paperback this book is neither cumbersome to carry around or expensive to purchase. The photographs can almost draw you into the picture, making you wish that you were really there! For the armchair traveller, interior designer or amateur enthusiast, the vivid vibrancy of the rich colours of this country are bought to life with photographs that simply cannot fail to inspire.
