About the Item

Morocco Timeless Places Hardcover by Annette Solyst. Although Morocco shares the Mediterranean coast with Europe, it can seem far-removed and mysterious. A photo tour takes you where timeless traditions mix with modern hotels; where crowded bazaars sell powders and potions near a muezzin's call to prayer. Travel in word and picture to the modern capital of Tangier, and explore its ancient Arab quarters of Medina. Climb the cobbled lanes that lead to the romantic Casbah, and view the Strait of Gibraltar. Dine in the 2,000-year-old seaside village of Asilah, and then visit the Roman city of Sala Colonia, and its eerie necropolis. End the visit in Casablanca, and relive its international intrigue. See how, today, Casablanca's four million people are making it a center of world trade. Explore this mysterious realm in Morocco. Ramble through the winding streets of Tangier or wander through the ruins of the ancient Roman city of Sale Colony in Rabat. Immerse yourself in the stunning and various landscape, from mountain top casbahs to stark and dramatic vistas. Filled with luscious full-color photographs accompanied by captivating and provocative text. This mesmerizing volume offers a taste of Morocco's mystique from cosmopolitan Casablanca to the busting old-world markets of Fez and provides a taste of the charm and elegance of this fascinating country.

Mediterranean Design Book by Mary Whitesides 1st Edition, 2006
Located in North Hollywood, CA
Mediterranean Design hardcover – August 17, 2006. by Mary Whitesides (Author). Title: Mediterranean Design Publisher: brand: Gibbs Smith Publication date: 2006 Binding: Hardcover Great hardcover coffee table book. Mediterranean Design reveals the vibrant color, outdoor-living emphasis, and diverse cultural influences that have created this unique style. Defined by an eclectic mix of natural elements: sunlight bouncing across textured walls, rooms arranged around porch-lined courtyards, terra-cotta tile roofs covering wood-beam ceilings, arched passages and porticos, vibrantly colored interiors, and courtyards and fountains that take advantage of the temperate climate. Mediterranean Design brings home the romantic and worldly appeal of a style that finds its heritage in the diverse lands of Morocco, Spain, Greece, Turkey, France, and Croatia. Mediterranean Design highlights the unique aspects of the style, such as spatial orientation of the rooms is defining and private vestibules and porches rather than hallways connecting functional spaces, bedrooms as suites rather than lonely rooms, bathrooms as spas rather than generic or merely functional rooms. Details such as arches, pillars, high ceilings, fountains, gardens, pergolas, lime-washed walls, stone façades...
