There are many kinds of fountains, which can be roughly divided into: ordinary decorative fountains, fountains combined with sculptures, water sculptures, self-controlled fountains and so on. In general, the location of fountains is mostly located at the axis focus or endpoint of buildings and squares, and some small fountains can be made according to environmental characteristics to decorate indoor and outdoor spaces freely. Fountains should be placed in a sheltered environment to maintain the type of water.
Fountain pools have natural and complete forms. The position of spraying water can be located in the center of the pool, or it can be biased to one side or freely arranged. The form and scale of water spray and the ratio to the size of fountain should be determined according to the spatial scale of fountain.
2. The location of fountains in different environments
In the open space, such as in front of the station and at the gate of the park, the fountain pool should be in the whole form, the pool should be large, the water spray should be high, and the lighting should not be too gorgeous;
In narrow venues, such as street corners, fountains and pools are mostly rectangular;
In traditional gardens, fountains and pools are mostly naturally sprayed with water, which can be made into water drops, springs and so on. , mainly to express the state of natural water;
In busy places, such as some small places in the park, fountains are free in form and can be combined with various decorative sketches such as sculptures. Generally, it is not advisable to change too much.
3, the height and diameter of water spray
According to the physiological characteristics of human visual field, for fountains, sculptures, flower beds and other scenery, the vertical visual angle is 30 degrees and the horizontal visual angle is 45 degrees, which has a good visual field. The suitable sight distance of the fountain is 3.3 times of the spraying height. Of course, it can also be used to shorten the sight distance and cause the effect of looking up. The radius of the pool should be proportional to the head height of the fountain. Generally, the radius of the pool is 65438+ 0.5 times the height of the fountain. The radius is too small, and water droplets are easy to splash. In order to make the spray pattern obvious, a dark landscape should be used as the background.
