A Rigorous Moroccan Villa By Studio KO

Designed by Olivier Marty and Karl Fournier, the duo behind architecture practice Studio KO, ‘Villa E‘ is a minimalist piece of art standing among the spectacular nature.

With offices in Paris, London and Marrakesh, Studio KO realizes architectural projects in various locations around the world. With their artistic vision and minimalist approach, Marty and Fournier create contemporary houses that, while poetically exposing surrounding nature, blend into the landscape without too much intervention. A fortress-like ‘Villa E’ in Morocco was made from locally sourced Oika stone on the outside, whereas the interior features pale timber flooring and full height steel pivot windows. A rigorous and peaceful residence, it combines natural materials with contemporary style to respectfully enrich the surrounding landscape.
