Harmonic Environments’ Bellaqua Series of Indoor Waterfalls
One click on the Harmonic Environments website and you’ll know you’re in for a quintessentialy relaxing experience. This isn’t only because of the soothing stylings of classical guitar (Old Andalusia with just a hint of Enya), bu How To Get A Guy To Text You Back t also because the images of the Bellaqua Series of indoor water installations immediately transport you to a different time and place: the lush glens of the Irish hill country, the rolling steppes of Scotland’s misty Isle of Skye, the intricate Moorish gardens of the Alhambra palace in Granada.
Bellaqua Indoor Waterfalls. Manufactured by Harmonic Envionments.
Water features have been a bit underplayed here at 3rings—with the notable exceptions of Elena Colombo and Nayer Kazemi—and if the aesthetic and emotional appeal of the Bellaqua Series is any indication, this is an oversight in need of remedy. In addition to providing an eye-grabbing and mouth-watering focal point, indoor waterfalls transmit a karmic benevolence that soothes and relaxes, that encourages focus and clarity in thought, that is literally healthful (if you believe the scientific evidence of reduced blood pressures and my anecdotal evidence of a walk in the woods beside a babbling brook).
The Bellaqua Series minimizes some of the installation hassles of water features. Though they’re available in nearly any size (up to 10.5 by 20 ft. for a glass wall) and with a multitude of finishes (Harmonic Environments can match finishes from a home’s existing palette—preferred materials include glass, stainless steel, copper, and granite), Bellaqua seems to focus on smaller installations: the portfolio boasts many partition wall projects, like the 6′ x 8′ “porthole” installation whose sunny shade of yellow makes it just right for kitchens; or the 6′ x 8′ rectangular feature with cushion shape aperture in powder blue, whose “skyscraper” moniker evokes the airy feeling of being surrounded and supported by so much glass and sky.
All told—and as the manufacturer says, Bellaqua is “a remarkably simple, streamlined approach to enhancing any space with the magic of falling water.” Every Bellaqua waterfall is customized to match existing decor and installed complete with housing: all lighting, mechanical, plumbing, and purification components are hidden from view, which is all the better to complete the picture, because Bellaqua’s seamless water features create the wondrous illusion of a natural spring percolating into your cherished personal space.
