BENJAMIN BENSCHNEIDER / THE SEATTLE TIMES ON THE COVER: Glass artist Dale Chihuly loves the water and has been an avid swimmer for years. The recessed area under his 54-foot pool was recently recomposed to display a collection of 350 to 400 glass components; two of his signature chandeliers are suspended above. On the walls hang Chihuly's drawings for his "Float" series.
