MARRAKESH DIARY: ANCIENT EVENINGS

The first day in Marrakesh I watched the sunset and thought "This world is more ancient than I could ever imagine"

Marrakesh is only 3 hrs from Paris. But it also feels like 4,000 years away. TI's been MIA because of the experience. Lost the i-phone straight off the plane...no wi-fi ...but Morroco has a magnetic power more ancient and transformative than words could explain. More pictures to come...the words once I find them.

View from Paul and Mohammed's infinity pool at Villa Jade

Obsessed with the specific blue you get with Morrocan light at the Jardin Marjorelle in Marrakesh

The fascinating faces of Marrakesh

The YSL tribute in the Majorelle Gardens is very elegant , Saint Laurent's ashes are scattered in his nearby garden

TI took a perverse obsession with the doors in the souk. The texture.. looks like jewelry to me. Great inspiration for a bag too

Blues, yellows, greens...together and yet graphic....YSL's genius for coloration makes sense now

The sun set exactly this way in Egypt...Nubia...Mesopotamia...Babylon ...
