Located on the outskirts of Casablanca, the new Dar es Salam Market represents a key intervention in Morocco’s urban fabric. Designed as a modern and functional public space, the market embraces sustainable solutions and materials that blend with the local architectural identity. For the building’s roof, the TB-4 ceramic tile was selected — a large-format model known for its mixed profile, lightweight structure, and excellent performance under extreme weather conditions. Its natural finish blends seamlessly into the Moroccan landscape, honoring tradition while offering a contemporary execution. The project was developed by the architectural firm Atelier Kasbah (www.atelierkasbah.ma), known for its contextual and sustainable approach. Construction was carried out by Build Maroc SARL.
The Golden Alfa Innovation Award was given by the Spanish Ceramic and Glass Society for the development of SKIN-KER® by Tejas Borja, an installation system that creates a self-ventilating roof with large-format and extensive flat ceramic façade tiles, wrapping the whole building in a product of equal quality and appearance.
