La Maison Picassiette
Covered from floor to ceiling with mosaics, La Maison Picassiette is a house decorated with glass, stone, and ceramic all by one man named Raymond Isidore. Not only are the walls, floors, exterior, and ceilings covered in mosaics--the beds, furniture, and stove are, too. You can even walk on several floors and walkways covered with mosaics made from broken pieces of marble. Peruse the garden walls for more mosaic motifs at the home called "Picassiette," meaning "Picasso of the Plate."

Interested so went to find the place -a bit hidden away but easy parking on the outskirts of Chartes. Àbout 35 minutes to view.

The amount of detail in this house is incredible. I can't beleive one guy spent that much time creating this masterpiece. Everything - and I mean everything - is covered in mosaic tiles, from the walls to the floor and even the beds and chairs. It was a unique experience.. One you should definitely seek if you are in Chartres

A real gem and extraordinary place to visit in Chartres. It is an oasis of peace, colour and originality with every thinkable surface covered in mosiacs.
