One of the stars of this garden is the blue building, result of the combination of the primary colors. This building was the studio of Jacques Majorelle. It is based on the Art Deco style and it also has Moorish influences.

Yves Saint-Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé discovered the Majorelle Garden during a trip in which they fell in love for ever with Marrakech. Eventually, the couple bought the gardens in 1980 and transformed Majorelle’s studio into a museum. Moreover, they also completed the plant collection.
