The Inside Outside Connection

[Jace]

Does your home connect to nature?

The connection to nature, as seen from within your home, may be referred to
as the Inside Outside Connection.

The soothing sound of water, the verdant color of trees, the undulating rhythm of plants,
and the fragrance of seasonal flowers share a specially relationship with your house.

Can you visually connect from the inside your house to the outside?


I can say....Yes, that's why we bought this house!

 

[Don M.]

Definitely! We live in a nice forest, and a look out the window is Always pleasant....especially when a group of the local deer are gathered in the yard munching grass.

 

[Paco Dennis]

Yep.

Watched an otter flop across my yard a few months ago, often have sand hill cranes graze 20 feet from my porch, watch them gather to roost in the nearby grove every evening.

Yes, I have many mature trees and 3 ponds on my property, I occasionally see deer, coyotes and lots of small critters.

Yes.... lots of mature trees, shrubs, hedges, herbs, flowers... green lawn, bird bath, bird feeders, my garden is my oasis..... and a little way behind my house is the woods and lake.. not exactly visible from my house , but just a few minutes stroll.. I hear the Muntjak barking at night...

I feel blessed that although I live in the "inner city", it's not a concrete jungle. Our complex courtyard has trees, bushes (2 in front of each patio that stay green all year round), flowers including a rosebush. Our garden committee members have planted orchids and other pretty flowers. We even have a cherry blossom tree. These are all visible from our windows.

We live in a major metropolitan city and love it. Services everywhere with easy access, and a home filled with light every day. This is the back wall of our cottage. When you walk in the front door you can see straight through to the east-facing hills. We get beautiful moonrises and gorgeous sunsets, along with some of the best weather in the world

This is the wall of windows:

We have many trees, as well as landscaped gardens around us.
