What is an "arris"?
An arris is the sharp edge or corner formed where two surfaces meet, typically found in architectural elements like moldings, columns, or walls. It creates a clean and defined line, enhancing the visual appeal of a structure. Arrises are important for both aesthetic and functional purposes, as they can help to reflect light and create shadow, adding depth to the design. In some cases, arrises may be slightly rounded or angled to soften the edge while still maintaining a distinct separation between surfaces.
