Residential Water Features

Picture your perfect vacation spot and most folks admit water is a part of that vision whether it is a beach, mountain stream or lake. Creating a residential water feature at your home can change the look and feel of your property significantly without great hassle or expense with proper planning. Large scale residential water features may make sense on larger properties but even a small-scale fountain, stream or pond feature may be more appropriate especially for intimate and smaller spaces.

Plan your water feature thinking of 3 key elements: Form, Function and Maintenance.

Form of Residential Water Features in Newnan –

Residential water features are aesthetic elements taking the shape of the space you are installing them into.

  • If you have a formal space such as an existing geometrically shaped patio or entry courtyard, then rectangular, square, or other formal shapes will fit visually in most instances.
  • Contrasting fountain shapes as a focal point could fit in a formal space if the scale is appropriate. Scale in design simply means the size of the element as it relates to the size of the space.
  • Custom natural water features or off the shelf artistic items should be considered based on your goals for how it will impact the space either as a compliment to your property or a key focal point.

Function of Residential Water Features in Peachtree City –

  • The sound of moving water is often desired as much as the beauty of any feature. A cascading stream superimposed on a steep slope that seems unwanted and hard to use will sound like a mountain waterfall with enough volume of water crashing over stones and boulders.
  • If you like fish and water plants, a natural pond can fit into wooded and natural properties providing interaction with families feeding water pets and cultivating a whole different plant palette. Water features are one of the best interactive focal points of any property feature.
