Most of the time, when one mentions interior decoration, the first and most significant place they go about decorating is the living room. This is the common place where families bond together, friends meet to chat, and one of the states of relaxation sets in. If one considers these facts, an atmosphere can be designed that would be not only aesthetic but relaxing and soothing. The way of getting this done is by including an indoor fountain in one's living room design. An indoor water feature can be sense-giving as well as classy all at one go, but at the same time improve the general ambience in your space.
In addition to its aesthetic value, an indoor fountain can also provide more varied benefits to the users as an additional accompaniment to the soft water sound streaming that often produces feelings of peacefulness and gives one an element of reduced tension.
They can add a very dramatic presence to your living room besides creating soothing qualities. Then, whether you opt for a modern design, a traditional water feature, or a look more natural, the indoor fountain can quite draw your eyes and play the role of a centrepiece in your room. It gives depth and texture to your house decor and transforms ordinary space into something extraordinary.
The trick to pulling off this integration is to find the right fountain for your space. Here are some factors to consider in choosing that ideal indoor water feature:
You should not make the size of your fountain any larger or smaller than the size of your living area. A large, powerful fountain may overwhelm a small room, while an extremely small fountain is likely to be lost in a large living area. You will consider what scale is right for your space and how a fountain would harmoniously fit into your space without overwhelming other things in the room.
There are so many types of indoor fountains that you can choose from, varying from modern and sleek to antique and classic. Your preference should complement the overall décor of the living room. A geometric, minimalist design fountain will fit perfectly into a modern design for your living room. For individuals who desire a more earthy or organic look and feel, incorporate stone, plants, or even bamboo into your water feature. Then there's the variety of materials used in your fountain. Probably some of the most commonly used materials in fountains are stone, ceramic, metal, and glass, each having its look and personality.
The location of your indoor fountain is crucially important to its effectiveness. Place it in a viewable but not obstructive area of a room so that it can be seen and heard yet not block traffic in that room. A corner or along a wall is often ideal for creating a visually interesting focal point without taking up too much space. Consider the sound of the water; the soothing sound of a fountain is one of its greatest benefits, but should the sound be too loud or disruptive, it's going to be a turn-off.
As with other home decor, an indoor fountain may require a regular maintenance schedule. First, check if a built-in filtration system for the fountain is in use. This will keep the water in the indoor fountain. Some fountains require much more care, especially those designs incorporating more natural elements, like stones or plants, which collect dirt or algae. Choose a fountain that fits your level of dedication to maintenance and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for cleaning and care.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, an indoor fountain can give you many benefits. Here are some good reasons to place an indoor water feature in your living room:
Scientific research has proved that the sound of flowing water is soothing to both the human mind and body. This is very helpful for a living room since this room is where most people go to relax after spending the entire day busy with work, school, or other daily activities. The soothing voice of running water could drown background noises from outside or even within the house, hence creating a soothing, calm environment.
Indoor fountains enhance the air quality in your living room. Water evaporation from the fountain introduces moisture in the air, which prevents dry indoor environments, especially during winter. In effect, this can help alleviate dry skin conditions, allergies, or respiratory issues. More importantly, the constant movement of water in an indoor fountain helps purify the air by trapping dust particles and other allergens.
The evaporation of water by a fountain in your home is natural. This could be an organic process in assisting in raising the humidity within your living room. This may come in handy if you reside in a dry climate or during the cooler seasons where indoor heating creates dry air. Raised humidity can eliminate static electricity, reduce dry skin, and promote better growth for indoor plants.
An indoor fountain is a wonderful, stylish focal point in your living room. It adds movement and texture to the room, giving it an invincible and more dynamic feel. Be it some very modern, sleek design or a more naturalistic water feature—it will look fabulous with your existing furniture and home decor yet elegant and charming in there. A well-positioned indoor fountain in the house can tie the entire space together and enhance the look of the living room as a whole.
In a home, sometimes indoor water features are used to add some unique and beautiful features. An indoor water feature can bring beauty to your living room designs and make your home more attractive, thus increasing the value of the home. Whether it is to sell the house or just to experience an evening that is livable, an indoor fountain makes all the difference.
Here are a few tips on getting an indoor fountain to blend in your living room:
Position your indoor fountain in the centre of the space where it draws attention and will then set the tone for the rest of the space. A good placement of a fountain can give focus to the room, thus creating balance and harmony in the room.
Make your indoor fountain much more natural in feel by deciding to couple it with some indoor plants or flowers. Adding water to a green space often brings together a soothing, nature-inspired space that tends to diminish tension and calm the mind.
The style of your fountain should complement the overall decor of your living room. A modern living room design would call for a contemporary fountain with clean lines and sleek materials. Traditional or rustic looks would be better suited with a more natural stone or intricate detailing.
And even more, lighting will make your indoor fountain look even better than when there is proper lighting. Consider installing low-level lighting around your fountain, which will point to flowing water and simply create a peaceful, serene place. Spotlights, LED strip lights, or even candlelight can warm and elegantly accent the space.
An indoor fountain is a very powerful design element in any living room. It not only makes for such a soothing, relaxing feeling but also brings the decor of your home up a bit. Whether you decide on a bold, large piece or something smaller and more subtle, an indoor water feature causes your living room to resemble a haven of peace. Thus, the right choice of a fountain in an appropriate place in your space will certainly calm a mood and promote health and well-being, besides beautifying your home further.
