Austin, Texas
2014 National CotY Award Winner, Residential Exterior Specialty
The object of this exterior project was to use water features to block out the sound from the road traffic. The first feature created by Realty Restoration is a small four-sided fountain made from limestone slabs pulled from a quarry on a ranch owned by the homeowner’s friends. The second water feature is a 3-foot wide negative edge spillway from the hot tub, which splashes into the pool below. The focal point is three water spouts originating from a stone/plaster screen wall near the rear of the property. The individually controlled spouts adjust water dispersion based on the white noise being created.
