Is the black part of the water feature a hard surface? Could act as a water feature, splashpad for the dog and still function / not look out of place when not running. The water feature that sits between the dining and lounge areas was inspired by the work of Italian landscape designer Luciano Giubbilei, after one of the homeowners sent Stevens a picture of the kind of water feature she wanted. “They also wanted the water feature to activate the space with sound. We tried to create something similar but using materials in Colorado,” Stevens says. A quarry in the nearby town of Lyons cut a huge slab of Colorado buff sandstone for the water feature. “Then we had a custom steel water weir made that we chiseled into the stone and set, and then we core-drilled the monolithic stone so we could run the pipe up through it to feed the weir,” Stevens says. “And then we poured a custom water basin. This feature is central to the whole design, and the space just feels incredible when you’re in it.” Stevens planted dwarf fountain grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides, USDA zones 6 to 9; find your zone) around the fountain.
Located along the Intracoastal Waterway in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this elaborate pool design continues from indoors to out. Van Kirk & Sons Pools and Spas carved out a sunken lounge space surrounded by water on three sides and with a cover. The space can be accessed by steppingstones across the pool in two places. And a linear fire pit marks the line between indoors and out.
I like the water feature on the left, with multi-levels and it empties into gravel.
