Yves Saint Laurent, one of the greatest names in fashion, was known for his sophisticated and beautiful clothing.  But he brought style into every aspect of his life – including the places where he lived.  I stumbled across these images of his home in Morocco, a 92,000 square foot villa which sits on a cliff overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar.

Designed by the master of French interiors, Jacques Grange, the villa offers a blend of African and European influences. Laurent considered Morocco his home away from home, and often included Moroccan flourishes in his clothing collections.   Now, here’s a lesson on how to live in style!
