I think this is my favorite of all the tile photos I took. Without looking closely you almost lose the sense that this is made of tile and plaster at all. And the great bursts of green and blue on the mosque offer such a tight, expressionistic bit of filigree up against the light marble of the structure. My guide told me that the structure cost some $800 million and was one of the last big building projects of Hassan II's life. Photo 7 of 7 in Tiles of Casablanca by Aaron Britt
