La Villa Majorelle [06:42]
C'est en 1931 que le peintre Jacques Majorelle fit construire par l'architecte Paul Sinoir cette magnifique villa de style mauresque et Art déco au Maroc, à Marrakech. Amoureux des plantes, l'homme élabora au fil du temps un véritable jardin botanique, bordée par une cocoteraie et une palmeraie. La Villa fut rachetée en 1980 par Yves Saint-Laurent et Pierre Bergé, qui entreprirent la rénovation de la demeure et doublèrent la surface des jardins. Les deux hommes conservèrent la partie habitation pour leur usage privé et transformèrent l'atelier en Musée de l'Art islamique, ouvert aux touristes.
