DDAR: Rammed Earth and Wind Craft a Climate-Smart Home in Essaouira

DDAR stands on a 10-hectare hillside just outside Essaouira, Morocco, by Othmane Bengebara Studio. The project reads as a contemporary douar—rooted in local climate, craft, and community—yet tuned for present-day life. Designed in 2024 in collaboration with the owners and regional makers, this house embraces vernacular intelligence and bioclimatic thinking, from wind-calibrated openings to robust water management. It’s a home built by many hands, and for many conversations.
