A relaxed family home in the Moroccan countryside, surrounded by farms, mud houses and ruins. The vernacular architecture and surrounding landscape of Ziad played a pivotal role in the techniques used in the construction stages.

                  Inspired by local historic craftsmen, natural, artisanal traditional Moroccan materials were used , such as ‘pisé’ (mud and straw) walls, tadelakt (polished plaster), dos, hand-cut local stone, bricks and timber.

                 With an emphasis on local crafts, artists, materiality and detail. Ziad is defined by a natural and organic palette of sandstones, warm neutrals and rusts to shape the narrative's connection to its location and history.  Furnished with a mix of found items, vintage and new pieces - made by local craftsmen and bespoke items, designed by us to fit perfectly into their surroundings.
