Moroccan Riad Terrace Fountain Fez

Zellige tiles in geometric patterns of turquoise, cobalt, and white line the square fountain basin below a raised wooden terrace. Bright midmorning sun from the clear mountain air casts sharp, short shadows across the polished wood beams and carved plaster walls. The symmetrical layout frames the water feature perfectly, reflecting the azure sky between the arches. A silver teapot sits on a low brass tray near the edge of the terrace, resting on a woven rug. The stillness of the water mirrors the intricate tilework above, while dust motes settle on the warm, dry stone surfaces of the courtyard walls.
