What if the arid garden became lush

The Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech is hosting the landscape architects and authors Arnaud Maurières and Éric Ossart, who will give a lecture on their approach to gardening in arid environments.

Drawing on over twenty years of experience in Morocco, the two landscape architects have developed a design philosophy centered on gardens adapted to climatic constraints—where water conservation is in harmony with botanical diversity, forms and textures. Their approach offers a fresh perspective on the garden and its potential in regions prone to drought.

This event will also provide an opportunity to discover their book, Onze jardins d’aridité, expériences marocaines (Pyramyd, 2024), along with other publications, which will be available for signing following the lecture.
