1. In this home, the puja room is surrounded by a kund or water body inspired by traditional Indian temple tanks. The tiny waterfall and sunken pool, plus the sunlight streaming from above, help create a perfect indoor-outdoor feel.
Tip: It's important to install an automatic refilling device and a filter to help maintain water levels and water quality. Stagnant, dirty water can lead to algae formation.
2. This indoor water tank under the stairs not only adds a Zen vibe, it also offers itself as a decorative architectural feature. The experience of ascending and descending the stairs is enhanced with constant views of the water feature, thanks to the floating steps and the glass balustrade.

3. The soft sound of water flowing down the water wall ensures the tea service area right behind and the wide passageway are always calm, soothing areas.
Tip: When choosing a spot to install an indoor water feature, ensure you pick a place that is often frequented, so as to maximise its impact.
4. This indoor water feature is central to the home's design and visible from all floors. The visual of water and greenery helps create a calm environment inside the house.
Tip: Sometimes a way to work with water is to experiment with elements that imply its presence. By using a strip of pebbles, a large water barrel or a fountain installation with stones around it, you can give the impression of flowing water without actually really having it.
5. This indoor seating area has all the outdoor elements ideal for creating an alfresco-style set up – lush greenery, three dainty water fountains and even the impression of a large tree, thanks to the lighting design.

6. This vintage-style stone water fountain (usually seen in old European towns) fills this courtyard with charm and beauty, and acts as an eye-catching installation, while connecting the bedroom and the living room.
Tip: If you live in a dry climate, an indoor water feature can add moisture and adequate humidity to the air, beneficial for the body (no more chapped skin and dry lips). It is even beneficial for house plants since it provides them the atmospheric moisture they need.
7. This narrow pool extending inside the home shows how a soft, fluid element like water can create sharply defined architectural lines in a home.
8. This acrylic water wall makes for an exciting accent feature with its colour-changing LED lighting and organic design.
9. A water wall partitions the entrance and the living room, and doubles as a dynamic art piece. The semi-transparent glass wall ensures that there's a seamless connection between the two spaces and neither of the two areas seem boxed in.
11. This sweeping lily pool, set in the courtyard of a vintage-style bungalow, showcases a striking interplay between the outdoors and indoors, between the sky and the earth. Visible from all sides of the home, this feature ensures that the air flowing inwards is always cool and the environs are relaxed.
12. The glass-encased TV lounge area has an indoor backlit waterfall feature that ensures a close connection with the outdoors.
13. The indoor pool, enhanced with a waterfall, is reminiscent of natural mountain springs. It adds an organic touch to the modern pool design.
