This September 2026, discover the extraordinary geometric and curvilinear patterns preserved in three historical Moroccan/Andalusian manuscripts.

Through detailed geometric analysis, participants will learn how these intricate designs are constructed and gain a deeper understanding of the artistic traditions that brought them to life.

Alongside this analytical study, the course introduces traditional Moroccan drawing techniques, with the artisanal Rshim method as the primary framework for pattern construction. This time-honoured approach offers participants a practical insight into the geometric processes and drawing methods used by master illuminators.

Designed for artists, designers, architects, craftspeople, and scholars of geometry, this course provides a rare opportunity to engage directly with historical Moroccan patterns and develop a rigorous, hands-on understanding of the principles behind their enduring beauty.
