The Courtyard
Open sky, pale stone and water at the centre of the house.
AN OPEN SKY AT THE CENTRE
Step inside.
Stay a little.
A house held together by its courtyard. From the shaded passage to the rooftop, every space has its own light and its own rhythm.
01 / THE COURTYARDThe heart of the house.
FROM STREET TO STILLNESS
A turn in the passage.
A change of pace.
The entrance bends before it opens. Beyond the timber door, daylight falls into the courtyard and water gathers in a small green-tiled fountain. The rooms look inward, toward this shared centre.
DAR SERA imagines a contemporary domestic setting in Tetouan, with a restrained palette of lime, timber, stone and linen.

THE SHARED SPACES
A place to read.
A table to gather.
The lounge and breakfast room sit on opposite sides of the courtyard. Leave your door, and find a different corner.
The lounge
Linen seating, timber chairs and room for an unplanned hour. The courtyard light moves across the floor throughout the day.
MATERIAL, LIGHT, TEXTURE
Simple things.
Closely considered.
The softness of lime plaster. The grain of dark timber. Green ceramic at the water’s edge. Materials give the house its continuity, from the courtyard to each private room.
The upper gallery links the bedrooms above. Stairs connect the ground floor, gallery and rooftop; there is no lift in this concept.
ABOVE THE HOUSE
Let the afternoon
take its time.
A shared rooftop with timber shade, linen cushions and a low roofscape beyond. Separate from the Terrace Suite’s private terrace, and reached by stairs.
