Casa L’ON is a neoclassical revival that transcends time

Casa L'ON

Located in a striking blue neoclassical building in the heart of Athens, Casa Lโ€™ON blends history with contemporary design. Marilena Kondou acquired the 130-square-meter apartment, originally a storage space, and oversaw a full renovation, collaborating with an architect friend to craft a new layout. Preserving the original columns and incorporating antique pieces from her family and carefully sourced shops, Kondou created a space that honors the buildingโ€™s past while reflecting her personal style. Although originally intended as her home, Kondou decided to keep it for future use, filling it with timeless materials, emotion, and a perfect harmony of old and new.
