Back to the light

Annotation
In the heart of an inner courtyard on Albertov, in the street Na Slupi, lies a recovery house — a temporary home for the moments when life feels heavy. A place offering safety and calm when it’s time to slow down.
A building designed like a lantern — delicate, semi-transparent, and quiet.
A symbol of light that doesn’t dazzle, but gently invites.
A light that says: YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
The lantern carries meanings that echo across cultures.
It is a symbol of hope, return, and quiet presence.
Perhaps it was never truly hung on a porch as a sign to say "come home" —
but that’s exactly why we can imagine it as a personal metaphor.
As a light that shines in the darkness and waits.
A silent signal that there is a place where you will be accepted just as you are.
