Besides the patience and the exactness of manual operations, control of design drawings remains for many of us a mystery because of their complexity, especially as the assembly is usually done face against the ground, so that the artisan does not have the identifying colours to build his design.
The workshop zellige of 3 hours is completely dedicated to the creation of a composition on small pieces based.
During the manual labour that allows you to realize a composition of small parts of zellige that you will draw and cut by yourself, Abdenbi or Mohamed explain to you all tiles of zellige manufacturing, then the different assembly techniques.
