An exhibition of the Vitra Design Museum

"The casbah of Algiers has everything: all the elements of an architecture that shows immeasurable sensitivity to human needs and desires." With this statement, Le Corbusier expressed his great admiration for the architecture of the Orient. Following in his footsteps, many of today's architects and designers draw inspiration from the Arab world. At the same time, due to the present political situation, our knowledge of these countries is generally limited to daily news reports on politics and social issues. Now the Vitra Design Museum is exploring the myths and realities of the Arab world in its exhibition "Living Under the Crescent Moon," which offers a comprehensive and fascinating survey of Arab domestic cultures.
