"(...)παρ δ΄ ίσαν Ωκεανού τε ρόάς και Λευκάδα πέτρην, / ηδέ παρ΄ ηέλιοιο πύλας και δήμον ονείρων (...) " [Homer,”Odyssey”]

“(...)μετωνόμασαν Λευκάδα επώνυμον δοκώ μοι του Λευκάτα, πέτρα γαρ εστί λευκή την χρόαν, προκείμενη της Λευκάδος εις το πέλαγος(…)” [Strabo,”Geography”]

The design prosposal concerns a complex of two private houses, identical to each other, both morphologically and conceptually. The house-[V] consists of indoor and semi-outdoor spaces. All of them are located beneath the white prism. The guest house is an underground structure, located on higher level and follows the geometry of the wedge .The [v]-house consists of day’s & night’s accommodation areas that are structured in a row. The triangular prism seems to have been wedged into the natural ground. It intersects the house in two, by filtering and separating the day’s accommodation areas from the night’s ones.
