Let it flow…Let it flow…Let it flow

Examples of water features designed by accomplished sculptor, Eric Higgs, in collaboration with The Schimberg Group, Inc. (clockwise from above: Conceptual entry sculpture for commercial building, Florida; Entry feature at Whole Foods Market, Sarasota, Florida; Residential entry sculpture, Sarasota, Florida)

Whether residential or commercial, aesthetically integrating water into a building’s design instills calmness and tranquility to its occupants.  Water evokes emotion, whether we hear it, see it, or are sub-consciously aware of it.  By utilizing water in design, the architect can connect the building to its context, provide a visual stimulation at the entry, reflect light in unique, interesting patterns or minimize noise pollution through water’s consistent sound frequency.  The result provides a positive environmental impact on our well being and lives.
