Water Features

Water plays an important role in our daily lives, sustaining all life on earth. Therefore, it is a key element to our home and gardens and needs to be considered when designing, as the simplest waterbowl can elevate any garden experience.  A water feature brings new dimensions to a garden, be it the sound of a bubbling fountain or running stream. Water gives a sense of movement throughout a garden, and can help draw the eye to an focal point. The movement of water introduces ideas of recycling and renewal - cleansing the surrounding environment. The inclusion of water in a garden invites wildlife to the garden from the stunning bird-life to the beneficial insect.

Below are examples of water features within gardens created by Woodland Designs.
