Contemporary Moroccan Home, Marrakech

Fobe House is a contemporary property designed by Guilhem Eustache a Paris-based architect. The property was completed in 2007 and can be found in Marrackech, Morocco. 

Alumnus of the prestigious L’Ecole Spéciale d’Architecture de Paris, Guilhem Eustache was asked to design a modern home for a Belgian film producer.

This contemporary building visually occupies the five-acre parcel of land.  Two parallel concrete sails create a noise and visual barrier to the west.  A steep stairway stands between the two walls, rising to a rooftop terrace that gives way to a spectacular view to the south and the Atlas Mountains on a clear day.  Large heights, flowing and open spaces, a play on shadow and light:  the house spans the landscape.
