Frederick Kiesler strongly believed in the concept of flexible space, a concept meant to be an optimal response to the social concerns and differing uses of its occupants. The early form of the “Endless House” shows a flattened spheroid, which took shape as a basis for his “Manifesto of Correalism”.
The early sketches, sample models and descriptions show the materials envisaged for building the house: reinforced concrete over a wire mesh. The windows were to be covered with translucent moulded plastic, creating irregularly shaped apertures. Pools were to replace conventional bathtubs and were scattered throughout the house.
