Morocco is famous for its vivid blues, from the main house at Majorelle Gardens to the city of Chefchaouen. wanted to explore this intense colour which appears throughout Moroccan craft.

The gardens were originally designed by French artist Jacques Majorelle in the 1920s and 1930s when he created his own shade of blue and commissioned an architect to design the villa for him. Majorelle would then spend numerous years here continuing to create his art while caring for the lush gardens until his death. It wasn't until 1966, after his death, that Yves Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé discovered the gardens after their first stay in Marrakech.
