Panos Valsamakis’ Marousi house, located in the “Paradisos” area, was designed to suit both his living and working needs. The challenge was to incorporate a permanent exhibition of his works, his workshop, and his residence. To solve this, a low building was constructed in 1962 based on the plans of architect Michalis Orros. Orros’ main focus was to showcase ceramics as a primary decoration element, while harmoniously blending it with other materials such as stone and wood. This can be seen in the design of the furniture, which integrates ceramics and wood. The other building materials were chosen to neutralize the colors and highlight Panos Valsamakis’ artworks. The house is a two-story urban home on two levels, designed to complement the avenue view.
Today, anyone can visit the house/workshop during working hours.
