Water Fountain
A place of business can sometimes be seen as a very sterile and uninviting place to be. It can be grey usually, slate blue or have unappealing colors in order to maintain a sense of professionalism. Businesses rarely can afford to use bright colors and things in their design because there is a conservatism required among business places. Though this can be trustworthy and professional, it can also seem cold and sterile, like an airport or like a place where only transactions are made.
There is not a lot of warmth or sense of feeling in there and this can be countered with the presence of a water fountain. Whether it is a wall hanging water fountain , or whether it stands on the floor or on a table or is wavy and curvy and bubble shaped, these fountains have natural water flowing that creates a soothing sound and a reassuring ambience that can really work to counter that sterile sense of professionalism. It brings in the effects and accents of nature and creates a sense of being more real and down to earth thereby suspending the feeling of being cold and impersonal.But because of the design of so many of these fountains it is still possible to maintain that sense of conservative professionalism, as well.
The fountains are often framed with slate or marble and can sometimes have marble backgrounds or slate ones or other materials that can match all of the polished and classy elements of the business’ conservative design but then the water and maybe some matching pebbles in the basin or some vines can really transform it into a very natural thing, therefore bringing in some nature into the office and creating a very warm and personal feel to an otherwise sterile and uncomfortably professional area of work and business.
