Tanner Fountain
I was immediately drawn to this landscape due to its unusual nature. It is a very interesting and unusual way to explore a fountain feature using water as mist rather than jets. I like how the mist has been used to create cloud like form that almost appears as if it an object floating over the ground creating an exciting illusion. The rocks laid in a circular pattern overlap the grass and tarmac making the fountain seem like it has just fallen into the landscape from space adding successfully to the mystery. They are also clearly well used in their function as a place to sit or lean against. The uniqueness, creativity yet simplicity in Walker’s design is something I am very impressed by and I get a lot of inspiration from to do the same. ___________________________________________________________________________________
