What at first appearance looks to be a substantial residential villa is in fact business headquarters in Rabat

A formal rose garden is set in front of the president’s office suite balancing a large lightwell on the other side of the villa that provides access and light to a basement courtyard staff canteen planted with Persian silk trees

We conceived a tall belvedere to anchor the garden and provide a focal point set inside a horseshoe shaped lawn bounded by a wide path and deep planted borders
