Project Description

The campus of the University Mohammed VI, covers an area approximately 55 hectares.  The geometric composition of the project is is defined by narrow streets, squares and palaces, a city largely pedestrian. The courtyards, gardens and semi-covered roads, become meeting places that encourage interaction between communities of students and teachers. The main street is involved in the daily lives of teachers and students and houses on both sides’ shops.
Centered around a large open patio of gardens, the home of each student is an individual space of rest and tranquility.  On each side of site, including the central axis and university residences, there are two large green areas. On one hand, sports equipment, the other an area reserved for gardens and places of meeting.
