How an architectural project unfolds

Five clear stages, precise deliverables at every milestone. You always know where your project stands.

  1. 01

    Listening to the brief

    First meeting, reading of the site, the program and the budget. We frame expectations, constraints and priorities.

  2. 02

    Sketch & design

    Plans, sections, 3D views and specifications: your project takes shape and becomes legible before any administrative step.

  3. 03

    Building permit submission

    Complete file submitted to the municipality, follow-up on instructions and possible revisions. We handle the full administrative process.

  4. 04

    Site supervision

    Contractor coordination, regular site visits, technical control and reports. The built project must match the drawn one.

  5. 05

    Handover

    Acceptance of the works, lifting of reservations, handing over keys and technical documents. The project is delivered and habitable.

In Marrakech and beyond

Our atelier is based in Guéliz, in central Marrakech. Most projects are in the city and its surroundings, but we also work elsewhere in Morocco depending on the scope.

Architect in Marrakech — questions to clarify

How much does an architect in Marrakech cost?

An architect's fees in Marrakech depend on the program, surface, level of finish and scope — sketch, plans, permit submission, site supervision. The most common range is 8% to 12% of construction cost for a full mission. A precise quote follows a first reading of the project and the land.

Read our full guide on architect pricing

Is an architect mandatory to build a villa in Morocco?

Yes, hiring an architect registered with the National Order of Architects is mandatory for any building permit application in Morocco. The architect signs the plans, submits the file and remains liable through to handover. For a villa, the role goes beyond signing: the architect designs the project and ensures the site runs smoothly.

What is the difference between an architect and an interior architect?

The architect designs the built envelope — volumes, structure, facades, building permit. The interior architect works inside that envelope: layouts, materials, light, bespoke furniture. The two scopes complement each other, and an architecture firm like I+G Partners can take on both.

Go deeper on interior architecture

What are the stages of an architectural project?

A project unfolds in five stages: listening to the brief, sketch and design, building permit submission, site supervision and handover. Each stage produces precise deliverables — plans, 3D views, technical specifications, site reports — that structure the client's decisions.

How do you choose your architect?

Start by looking at delivered projects and how they relate to yours — villa, riad, interior. Then check Order registration, the clarity of the method, the precision of the plans delivered and the quality of site supervision. The right architect is the one who understands your intention and translates it into a built project, with no drift in budget or schedule.

Our criteria for finding an architect

Do you work outside Marrakech?
