This picture was taken in Morocco and shows a facade with a distinct Arabic architectural style. The image shows a pink wall in which two wooden doors are placed. Both doors are reached by a small staircase with three steps. The fronts of these steps are lined with blue and white tiles in geometric patterns. The top of the stair treads is finished with natural stone, creating a quiet transition to the doors.
A decorative frame is visible around the doors. This consists of two parts. The lower half has the same blue-and-white tiles as the stair treads. The upper half is decorated with pastel yellow elements typical of Arabic art. These decorations are refined and symmetrical, as is often seen in traditional architecture in Morocco.
A simple lantern hangs above the doors. This adds a functional and atmospheric detail to the scene. The use of colour in the picture - pink, blue, white, yellow and brown - creates a warm and harmonious look.
This photo is a good example of urban architecture in Morocco. Terms such as Arabic art, geometric tiles, wooden doors, and Moroccan façade make this image easy to find for people interested in architecture and culture from North Africa.
