Palais des Congrès – Marrakech: Where Tradition Meets Modernity

Feb 2026

The Palais des Congrès in Marrakech is a place of contrasts: raw concrete frames delicate Moroccan patterns, and sharp shadows carve soft light. These images capture the tension between the building’s monumental presence and its intricate details—where every column, every ornament tells a story of cultural layers. Shot in 2026, the series frames the structure not just as architecture, but as a silent witness to Marrakech’s blend of past and future.
