Canal Water Feature
We were approached by James Basson of Scape Design with a vision for the Provence Courtyard feature which was inspired by the region’s historic maze-like network of irrigation canals. It was conceptually important that the water appeared to enter the feature at a single point and flow from this point outwards into the network of ‘canals’ and drain via multiple outlets at the end of each branch. The two large pools within the system are filled by water flowing from the ‘canal’ troughs via weirs forming definite water falls; it was essential that these were reliably created and of course their power tuneable to give the desired effect.
