Outdoor Patio Design Using Water Wall Fountains

By: Home | Home-and-Family | Home-Improvement


Trying to plan out and landscape your entire outdoor patio can be difficult, but adding wall fountains can make it simply beautiful and bring things to life. Wall fountains take up very little space, meaning you have less to landscape while still offering an amazing outdoor patio design piece.

Hanging wall fountains can be used in a number of different settings, no matter how big or small. They come in all shapes, sizes and themes, so finding one that will fit your outdoor patio can be as easy as pie. The only problem is actually deciding on just one that you like, since there are hundreds to choose from that look amazing no matter where they are placed. They can be found at local home improvement stores, garden stores and online retailers, so make sure you shop around before deciding on which fountain you will place in your patio. Hanging wall fountains look great in a number of different patio settings, ranging from a concrete sitting area to a luscious garden full of flowers and other plants. No matter what type of outdoor patio area you are setting up for, hanging wall fountains can always fit into the design.

If you are going for an outdoor patio design that will have a sitting area, you can use your wall fountains to border the sitting area. You could also set a standing concrete fountain in between four chairs, and it will become the center of almost every discussion. Make sure to go for a shorter fountain if you choose to place it in a sitting area, so everyone will be able to see one another and not have to talk over the fountain when engaged in discussion.

If you plan on having a lawn bordering your outdoor patio, wall fountains can look great when placed in border areas of the patio area of your lawn. The reason this works is many of the higher quality water wall fountains have nice bases that look great sitting on a patio or lawn area. If you prefer, you can even choose to purchase wall fountains and place them in the middle of the back wall in your outdoor patio. Landscaping with grass and including a fountain will provide a simple design, but it will look neat, organized, and well taken care of. If this is the design you are striving for, you may want to choose a taller fountain that will make sure to draw attention. Taller wall fountains actually make your lawn appear larger. Since you don't have to worry about anyone holding discussions on either side of the fountain, the possibilities really are endless when it comes to deciding on the size of your fountain for your lawn.

Hanging wall fountains look amazing when surrounded with different colors, so if you are landscaping with flowers, you can still include a fountain in your design. If you are going for a standing fountain, you will want to designate an area that your fountain will stand. You can plant shorter flowers around the entire perimeter of the fountain, or even place it right in the middle of an existing flowerbed. You can coordinate colors if you plan on purchasing hanging wall fountains with a colored finish, or use a wide variety for a stone or a neutral colored fountain.

Hanging wall fountains look amazing when plants are placed on either side, especially if they are symmetrical. You can plant tall flowers or even small trees on either side, just to draw attention to your beautiful fountain. You will want to stick to similar colors on both sides, since different colors can actually throw off your entire design. Concrete patios include a number of different outdoor patio settings; therefore, your planning options are many.
