Text description provided by the architects. Fez’s medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the world’s largest and most intricate historic urban areas. In 2011, an international design competition to revitalize this core attracted over 800 entries. The winning proposal, by Mossessian Architecture in association with Yassir Khalil, was enthusiastically received by the local community. It aimed to reconnect Lalla Yeddouna Square with the riverfront through a pedestrian-friendly route, weaving through the medina’s dense fabric and integrating artisan workshops, shops, eateries, educational programs, a nursery, and a women’s centre.
