Palermo spirale, I.5-2

Húsin rísa eins og hamar
Arenella er ysta staðsetningin í Palermo spirale, strandbær staðsettur í útjaðri Palermoflóa, norðvestan hafnarinnar. Ströndin er undir fjallahöfða og grýtt. Þar rísa húsin eins og klettar upp af fjörunni, forn hús fiskimanna. Nú er ströndin vinsæll komustaður heimamanna, auk þess sem eigendur báta og snekkja leggja þar farkostum sínum. Hér eru húsin á fjörukambinum myndefnið, þar sem búið er að byggja ofan á fornan grunn á allt að því lífrænan hátt.

The houses rise like cliffs
Arenella is the outermost location of the Palermo spiral, a coastal town located on the edge of the Gulf of Palermo, northwest of the port. The beach is under a mountain headland and rocky. There, the houses rise like cliffs from the shore, ancient fishermen's houses. Now the beach is a popular destination for locals, where owners of boats and yachts moor their vessels. Here, the houses on the beach comb are the subject, as they have been built on top of an ancient foundation in an almost organic way.
