You have read a summary of the story of the House of Atreus. Using your knowledge of the story, write a creative essay describing the actual
house of Atreus. Divide the house into rooms for each event in this family's story. What would be the most appropriate rooms for each event in
the history of the house? Describe the décor you would put in the house that could relate to the events of the house.

As in most houses you start off in the foyer, where people come and go. For this room I picked Iphigenia because of her accepting Artemis's help and then stealing and running away. Therefore, the front door represents her running away and leaving for Artemis to deal with her thievery. Next up, is the garage, another way you would enter the house. In the garage I've used Agamemnon, because of Clymenstra and Agisthus killing Agamemnon and his mistress, Cassandra. I feel in most horror movies the dead body or the killing happens in the garage where its dark and cold. Atreus and Thyestes represent the bedrooms of the house. They're constantly fighting and trying to get back at each other like siblings do. Niobe represents the dining room. She had so many kids to fill up the big table, and most dining rooms tend to be sad and drab so that is my second reason for that being her room. Pelops takes the living room, where you watch football on the weekends and cheer with your friends. He is like the Peyton Manning of the Colosseum days. He is the one all the people were watching because he won the prince's hand in marriage. Tantalus is the kitchen, his stew might now be a good idea to tastes but atleast he can cook. Plus, he is stuck in water and looking at an apple above his head. Basically, in a stew himself.

(PLATO answer)

(Answers may vary.)

I would imagine that the house of Atreus had seven rooms: a kitchen, a dining room, a nursery, a garage, a bedroom with a closet, a bathroom, and a family room.

I would place Tantalus in the kitchen, as he was the one who killed and cooked his son to feed to the gods. The kitchen would have a stove with a pot containing gravy for the feast. I would place Niobe, Tantalus’s daughter, in the nursery because she had fourteen children. The room would have fourteen cots along the wall and would have wallpaper depicting the gods Apollo and Artemis. I would place Pelops in the garage, working on his chariot to make sure the chariot is ready for the race with King Oenomaus of Arcadia.

I would place Atreus and Thyestes in the dining room, where Atreus is looking over at Thyestes who is enjoying his meal. He still does not know that Atreus made the meal after killing and cooking his children with Atreus’s wife Aerope. The dining room would have soft lighting so that Thyestes would not easily see the meal he is eating. I would place Agamemnon in the bedroom, where he is getting ready for battle (the Trojan War). In the closet, I would place Clytemnestra and Aegisthus, where they are having an affair and plotting Agamemnon’s death.

Orestes would be in the bathroom, where he is taking refuge from the Furies. He is turning on the tap for the shower, in preparation for the trip to get Artemis’s image back from the Taurians. I would place Iphegenia in the family room, where she is praying to the gods for saving her from the sacrifice of Agamemnon.
