Designing the Perfect Water Feature

Are you thinking about updating your Phoenix landscaping? Consider adding a water feature! Not only do they enhance the beauty and character of your space, but they can also reduce stress and bring a touch of nature to your backyard. When choosing a water feature, be sure to consider the following aspects.

Three Factors to Consider When Choosing a Fountain

Space 

Some fountains require more space than others. For instance, a tiered water feature can be a stunning addition but may take up significant space. If you have limited room, consider a wall fountain, a pondless fountain, or a bubbling rock fountain instead.

Style

Style is another important factor in choosing your fountain. A spouted fountain can be perfect for rustic or vintage spaces, while a glass fountain offers a chic option for ultra-modern gardens and patios. You can even theme your water feature by selecting a sculpture or rock formation that complements your home’s and garden’s aesthetic.

Ambiance
The ambiance you wish to create can also guide your fountain choice. For example, a Japanese water feature can foster a tranquil atmosphere with water trickling from a bamboo spout into a bowl. Conversely, a tiered fountain or waterfall might be louder, evoking the sounds of natural water features.
