<p>For the seventh episode of Why Morocco, I reached Casablanca-based architect Lahbib El Moumni by telephone from my studio in Marrakech. I met Lahbib through CasaMemoire, an organization dedicated to raising awareness and safe-guarding 20<sup>th</sup> century architecture in Casablanca, when I was writing about the need for architectural conservation in Casablanca’s downtown core for <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/africa/casablanca-architecture-art-deco-buildings-protection-morocco-casamemoire-a8336461.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Independent</a>. You see, Lahbib’s not just an architect, he’s also passionate about architectural conservation and public education.</p>
<p>We kept in touch and, recently, Lahbib and Imad<span class="s1"> Dahmani co-founded</span> Mémoire des Architectes Modernes Marocains (MAMMA), an association dedicated highlighting the architectural and urban heritage of Morocco from the second half of the 20th century. Think brutalist, a style I’m learning to love.</p>
