If you want to truly use your backyard patio as an oasis, consider adding a fountain into your renovations.
Fountains have been an age-old symbol of beauty and serenity (and not to mention they’re also rumored to grant wishes!).
But how do you choose the right fountain? Well, here are a few things to keep in mind.
- Size. Are you going for small and serene or a large and attention-grabbing? The size of your patio, garden and backyard should come largely in play when making this decision as you don’t want to take attention away from your home, beautiful garden or custom deck.
- Style. There are a variety of styles when it comes to fountains as well. You can create a nonchalant, soothing babbling brook or have an Ancient Greek statue, or you can have spouts that sprays water in unique designs and deliver a modern fountain. From traditional garden accents to modern Zen-inspired fountains, what style matches you and your home?
- Use. Do you plan on having this fountain overflow into your private pool? Stand alone? Your intended use definitely brings to play what kind of fountain you should get.
