BEST ARCHITECTURE YSL, Marrakech, Morocco
The Red City of Marrakech, as well as the works of Piet Modrian, were of profound inspiration for Yves Saint Laurent throughout his life. These elements guided Studio KO to develop a museum structure that would evoke the texture of YSLs signature couture. The interior was designed to evoke the suavity of the lining of a couture jacket while the exterior was inspired by the weft of the variety of fabrics used by the fashion icon. This unique marriage between fashion and architecture resulted in a spectacular space that includes a collection of 5,000 articles of clothing, 15,000 haute couture accessories; a library of 6,000 books; a 150-seats auditorium and an open-door café.
