Water Features in the Landscape

“Residential design is a key aspect to our practice at Design Workshop. When it comes to water features, pools still do remain a prominent element in many of our gardens but what we have seen in recent cases is an interest in having the presence of water but in a more artistic and intimate way. Many people see that water is a precious resource and from a design perspective it brings audible and visual qualities. At the end of the day water features can offer the opportunity to elevate the aesthetic and visual power to a space.” Mike Albert, Partner Design Workshop.
