Water fountains can come in many shapes, sizes, materials and styles. Although there are many differences from one fountain to the next, one thing is typically common among all water fountains, they are beautiful and typically can aid in stress relief and relaxation! See below for a summary of each type of water fountain and see what best fits your style.
Tabletop Water Fountains: Simply put, these are indoor fountains that are meant for an end table, bedside table, desktop or shelf. Table fountains can range in size from 6″ to 20″ so you can find the perfect centerpiece for your table. Although typically smaller than other fountain types, tabletop fountains can still be the focus of a room and provide beautiful sounds. You will find materials such as copper, slate, bamboo, fiberglass and plastic for many table top water fountains.
Wall Water Fountains: Wall fountains are mounted to a wall. Wall fountains are primarily utilized as a piece of interior decorating but can also be used on an exterior wall as well. Wall fountains are very popular and aid in decorating an entire room, a piece of art with a purpose if you must! You will thoroughly enjoy the soothing water sounds wall fountains provide and you will find materials to accent any room in your home. Wall waterfalls are also commonly used in offices as a focal point and to advertise the business with a personalized logo.
Floor Standing Fountains: Commonly used in entrance ways to home or offices or as room dividers, these beautiful waterfalls are stand-alone fountains and quickly become the focus of any room. Typical materials are glass or mirrored faces with stainless steel frames but virtually any materials are possible. A floor fountain or “room divider” fountain are common in businesses to seperate one area from another or as the first thing a customer or guest sees upon entering. Custom floor fountains are very commonly done as walls are often built around these floor fountains.
Outdoor Fountains: Not only are indoor fountains perfect for adding a final touch on interior design, outdoor fountains are also very common as they offer an inviting piece to any outdoor living area. Outdoor fountains often add babbling brook sounds or waterfalls sounds to a patio or deck or add that extra something to the landscaping or your favorite garden spot. Outdoor fountains come in fiberglass for a lightweight fountain, cast stone for a very impressive, larger fountain or ceramics and coppers. Many options available from rock waterfall styles to tall glass fountains.
With so many water fountains to choose you are sure to find the perfect fit for your living and working spaces. With more people spending time at home to save, bring water fountains into your life to help create your own personal haven you can retreat to each and every day!
