You may prefer one design style over another, choosing from traditional European, ethnic, and Oriental fountains to contemporary or creatively handmade. Traditional European water fountains are timeless and classy additions to any garden. Small contemporary designs are space-saving and elegant. For wild gardens and natural landscaping ideas, consider incorporating water features such as landscaped fountains, waterfalls, or Japanese-style tsukubai water fountains.

Classic water fountains

A few rounded basins, lion heads, fish, or other sculptures add an aristocratic vibe of European gardens to traditional water fountains. A classic garden fountain looks most impressive at the center of the flower bed, near the terrace, or in symmetrical gardens, blending a great deal of aesthetic pleasure into the outdoors.

Natural vibe

Some water fountains appear to have been created by nature. Nothing prevents you from making a miniature work of beauty in the Japanese style. Large stones, small landscaping rocks, pebbles, and basins crafted from wood or stone create elegant tzukubai fountains featuring bamboo water features. You can add plants and enjoy a peaceful nook in your garden or patio. With minimal effort, your small fountain can appear mysterious and intriguing, adding a decorative element to your home.
