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. In 1931 the painter Jacques Majorelle built by architect Paul Sinoir this magnificent Moorish-style villa and art deco in Morocco, in Marrakech. Plant lover, the man worked out over time a botanical garden, surrounded by coconut plantation and a palm grove. The Villa was bought in 1980 by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, who undertook the renovation of the house and doubled the surface of the gardens. The two men kept the living quarters for private use and the workshop turned into a Museum of Islamic Art, open to tourists.

Jardin Majorelle Winds [00:27]
The Jardin Majorelle was started by the painter Jacques Majorelle, and then substantially added to by Yves Saint Laurent, who lived in Marrakech for decades. He's evidently a famous gay icon, and he and his boyfriend lived there at the gardens, but there is no mention of this aspect in conservative Morocco. A large windstorm starts up in the gardens.
