Gone are the days when indoor water features were limited to swimming pools and simple fountains that took lots of space. The sleek and modern water features cost less yet beautify your rooms in a subtle way. The placement and positioning of the water feature will determine how well it gets integrated with the rest of the décor. Entryways, central halls, wide passages and the area beneath stairs are perfect for installing water features.

To create a serene and natural ambience, homeowners are opting for running streams that cuts through living room. Lush stone floors look great with such water feature. You can also opt for waterfall, which can then turn into a small stream that flows with soothing sound across your home.

A small well-designed water fountain pond with interesting fountain can also look excellent in small spaces. If money is not a concern, and there is sufficient space indoors then go for water garden with tropical plants.
