Think... Summer!
Fountains elevate the atmosphere of a garden, creating an oasis with a play of water... pleasing sounds that refresh. On a grand scale, fountains function as focal points within an expansive landscape design:
in historic settings...
or contemporary estate gardens.

A contemporary terrace at a friend's home, away from the town.
Always a pleasant diversion to discover a chic garden shop while traveling,
or to be in the embrace of a formal parkland on a surprisingly sunny winter's day.
The Crown Fountain is so unique that it definitely stands out as a favorite.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for reminding me that I need a fountain. In a tiny city garden where the sound of traffic occurs, I really want something else but sometimes I wonder if it might end up making life outside even louder.
ReplyDeleteNow, I want a fountain. :-D
