In Through the Outdoors, Part II: Outside In Examples
As climate change forces us indoors, more and more people are exploring ways to recreate the outdoor experience without all its headaches. The Outside In trend incorporates elements of fantasy, abstraction, and facsimile to reimagine nature as we wish it to be.
In Through the Outdoors
The Outside In trend takes a lot of clues from biophilic design but interprets nature through radically different lenses.

Rather, it often incorporates elements of fantasy, abstraction, or facsimile.
