Moroccan Riad

A traditional courtyard townhouse.

My Moroccan riad build. A riad is a courtyard townhouse, traditionally used as homes for the wealthy but many are now used as holiday rental houses for tourists to Marrakesh and other old cities of Morocco. Often plain and unassuming on the outside, the inside is full of luxury and life. Everything centres around the courtyard which creates a cool retreat from the heat of the African sun.
