House for Pénelope

Štěpán Chwistek

Annotation

A house for Odysseus' wife, who had been waiting for him for ten years before he returned from the war. It is a simple building with a circular floor plan, which offers shelter from the outside world and also serves as an elevated place to look around. It is situated on the coast with an unobstructed sea view. The sea is where Pénelope expected her husband to turn up.
