Pierre Berger and Yves Saint-Laurent liked accumulating and collecting special pieces in Marrakech during the swinging sixties and decorated their house by the talented Bill Willis who was an Orientalist in the tradition of Clairin, he appropriated an aesthetic language, then reinvented a new vision with all the Maroccan crafts and creates a very contemporary style and feel.
In the field of art, the term orientalism has been used to designate the works of Western artists who had traveled to West Asia and produced works on oriental subjects inspired by their travels.
Orientalist travelers European artists and furniture designers were inspired by the Moorish style, Islamic art and Arabic, Middle Eastern, Egyptian, Syrian, Indian, Ottoman, Persian and Moorish, Ottoman, Mamluk-inspired influences. or Damascene .... The universal exhibitions which take place in the second half of the 19th century reinforce this artistic current. The taste for orientalism still present in oriental architectural motifs, furniture, decorative arts and textiles, more and more sought after by a European elite. Supporters of the aesthetic movement in Great Britain (1860-1880), who collectively advocated an aesthetic of beauty in itself and valued form over the content of art, were particularly inspired by oriental interiors. This taste is illustrated in the Arab Hall (1877-1879) in the London house of the artist Frédéric Leighton (1830-1896): sparkling with mosaic tiles from Leighton's travels in the East, it served as a gathering place for like-minded esthetes.
