How To Use Water Walls To Enhance Your Home

Whether you are looking to renovate your home or simply improve it you may have noticed how popular water-related interior design elements are these days. Two decades ago, even professionals were hesitant about working with glass tiles, but now glass or acrylic tiles are popular DIY options and water-based designs have taken off as the creative, innovative and prestigious way to improve your home. Your imagination is the limit when it comes to incorporating water-based designs into your home.

Infinite Possibilities With Acrylic Water Walls

Glass has a beautiful quality with a myriad of applications but acrylic offers most of the same features with the added benefits of being safer and easier to live with. Acrylic water walls can be designed in a wide range of colors and textures to compliment almost any room in your home. You can use black acrylic water walls to give your living room an arty, edgy look and you can also incorporate softer blue acrylic water walls to complement and enhance your bathroom. Finding a specialist with the knowledge to give you proper advice may assist you in making the right choice but here are some starting ideas:

Individualize Your Kitchen

You can dramatically enhance your kitchen with water-based design elements by incorporating a `bubble bar` in place of the traditional breakfast bar. Bubble bars have water walls to create a dramatic effect and can compliment other glass or acrylic design elements in your kitchen. Using glass tiles as splash backs in your kitchen is both practical and creative. Using glass in your kitchen can alleviate the otherwise bland look of stainless steel or white enamel everywhere and you don’t need to use a lot of glass to make a big difference. Using glass tiles for your kitchen cabinets makes a huge difference to the ambience of your kitchen and can complement the effect of having a bubble bar installed.

Modern Chic In Your Garden

There are plenty of ways to incorporate water-based design elements in your garden to create a unique and creative tone. Toughened glass or acrylic makes a real statement around your pool and although you can get a professional installer, many places will rent the special cutting tools you need for DIY which will save you thousands of dollars. Unlike an ugly wooden fence, a toughened glass or acrylic fence enhances the appeal of your pool. You can take this one step further by installing water walls which are acrylic walls with water running between them. These water walls greatly enhance the beauty of your garden while offering privacy if used in the appropriate areas like the shower or changing area. Slate water walls elsewhere in your garden such as behind a seating area offer a dramatic effect as water is pumped over slate backing.

Versatile And User Friendly

Water panels are an excellent way of filling space, blocking off spaces, highlighting your walls and acting as accents. You can buy large water panels which can be moved to suit your requirements. It’s best to contact a specialist firm who can further advise you about the best features to complement your home’s design.
