| Design Matters by Chris Arelt: Bringing the Outdoors In |
It’s
an oft-heard design objective among folks building
or renovating a home these days: “We want to bring
the outdoors in!” Indeed, visually
or spatially connecting the interior of a home with
its surroundings
is a great way to make spaces feel larger, improve
daylight levels and, best of all, embrace Nature.
Most of us enjoy being outside, and when
we get a sense of that while inside it has a profoundly
positive effect on the experience of being at home.

LIVING
IN ART: The Shoreline Arts Alliance Architecture
Series
Creator:
Christopher Arelt, AIA LEED AP, owner/principal of Nautilus Architects, Lyme,
Connecticut
Towers
Residence, Essex |
Background:
Despite its long and illustrious history, architecture in modern America is often
overlooked as an art form. At its finest, architecture is every bit an art
form, defined as something created with a point of view, involving expression
and imagination, achieving beauty, and with the power to move and inspire.
More than simply an object, architecture has the unique capacity to deliver,
through inhabitation, experiential enjoyment. Our region is rife with first-rate
examples, from historic to contemporary, and everything in between.
Mission:
Improve the region's awareness of and appreciation for the art of architecture.
Objectives:
Promote greater appreciation of the region's built environment.
Broaden public awareness by exposing diverse audiences to distinctive architectural
examples. Educate and inspire discussion of issues of excellence in architectural
design and related fields.
