What could be more relaxing and atmospheric? This can be even better if your waterfall can be lit from behind (as many can) and this way you can create the eerie blue glow that we also associate with being underwater to make the whole room incredibly majestic. Really the most exciting thing about the waterfall as a water feature however is that they`re so rare. If you want to add something to y...
A water feature in your bedroom can transform your room into somewhere that`s incredibly tranquil and relaxing with the interplay of the rushing or trickling sound of the water and the dancing shimmering light that reflects of the water and is cast about the room. At the same time its presence will suggest luxury and class and will make a fantastic conversation point for visitors – everyone is i...
However custom aquariums also give you the added benefit of the fish themselves which provide a kind of tranquil company and give you something to look after and feel proud of as they develop. The versatility of custom aquariums also makes them highly popular as you can choose from a vast range of different fish to make the room as colourful and tropical as you wish, as well as a range of items an...
Bubble Walls: Bubble walls are a great way to create the feeling of water with all the light refraction, movement and trickling of an aquarium but with less of the work. Essentially bubble walls are transparent glass walls with water inside pumped with lots of air to create bubbles. They look fantastic as dividers in rooms as they can still be seen through and can be turned off when not in use (un...
Unlike other water features these can actually be touched and by dipping your fingers in the running water you can interact with the water falls and make patterns (kids will love this). At the same time water falls can be turned off and require minimum up-keep like bubble walls. While bubble walls create a more `space age` effect however, water falls are far more natural and can make you feel as t...
Water is incredibly relaxing and calming, and something about it makes us just want to relax and feel refreshed by its soothing noise and the dancing, refracting light it creates. This makes water features and similar items perfect for the bedroom where they will sooth you to sleep and create a far more realistic rain forest experience than a `sounds of the rainforest` relaxation tape. As you own ...
This means lots of blues and turquoise colours – though you want to keep the colours deep and fairly subtle to avoid a kitsch seaside effect. These dark blues will then be accentuated and highlighted by the light as it reflects from your water features which of course must feature heavily in any aquatic themed room. Once you`ve come up with the main look for your room then, consider which wat...
This also create a slightly different ambience – one that more like an aquatic city of the future as opposed to a natural rain forest. Of course another class of water features you might choose are custom aquariums. These will not only give you the same moving water and refracting light along with the calming and restful sound of the water, but will also give you the fish themselves to finish...
If you`re looking for a way to jazz up your restaurant décor and attract more visitors, then there are few better methods than getting water features installed for the interior. Not only will water features create a fantastic centre piece for your room, but they also provide an amazing ambience that will cast light and peaceful noise throughout the room and make a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere ...
If you are thinking of a pet then fish might just be the best option for you. While many people (wrongly) consider fish to be `boring` due to the fact that you can`t play with them or stroke them, they in fact have a range of other benefits that make them anything but and they offer a lot that no other pet can compete with. Firstly fish aren`t just pets – they`re water features – and the cu...
