Top 3 hot-trend square fountain designs 2024

Fountain systems are modern artistic musical water works that help enhance urban aesthetics in general and square architecture in particular. Let’s explore the top 3 hot-trend square fountain designs in 2024 and representative projects implemented by NLT Group right in the article below.

Why should fountains be installed in squares?

Impressive architectural highlights

Squares usually have large areas and are open spaces. The presence of a fountain plays the role of a prominent architectural structure, helping to create an additional aesthetic focal point for the square space. With diverse designs, from simple models to complex structures, fountains bring unique beauty, attracting the attention of tourists and local residents.

Creating a fresh atmosphere

Fountains not only bring aesthetic value but also contribute to climate regulation, increasing air humidity and making the air fresher, contributing to environmental protection. The sound of flowing water, cool air, and light reflections from the water create a relaxing space, helping reduce stress and bring comfort to everyone.

Cultural symbol, tourism promotion

Fountains are also cultural symbols and attractive tourism promotion elements, drawing visitors to cities, parks, or urban areas. Square fountains are not simply public spaces for sightseeing and photography, but also ideal destinations for organizing cultural and artistic events and spectacular musical water performances. Some projects also carry commemorative meanings of historical milestones, associated with special marks in the development journey of the country or locality. The presence of these works not only honors tradition but also inspires and evokes national pride among visitors and local residents.

Top 3 fountain designs that enhance square aesthetics

Circular basin fountain

The circular basin fountain is a popular and widely favored design in squares around the world. With a simple yet refined shape, the circular basin fountain brings elegant and modern beauty to the space, while creating an impressive focal point that attracts visitors.

The circular shape symbolizes perfection and eternity, representing harmony and balance. The circular basin design with soft, flowing lines enhances the beauty of the square, creating a luxurious and classy space. In addition, it can be designed in various sizes, forms, and styles, suitable for all square spaces and areas.

Water jets from the fountain can create many beautiful effects such as vertical water jets, dome-shaped water curtains, water bubbles, etc. Combined with a lighting system, it becomes shimmering and magical at night, attracting the attention of visitors.

In-ground fountain

The in-ground fountain, also known as a recessed fountain or splash pad, is an extremely modern artistic musical water design that is increasingly popular, bringing sophistication and luxury to square spaces. Unlike traditional fountains with fixed basins, this in-ground design is installed beneath the pavement surface, creating a seamless flat plane, helping maximize space savings and providing a spacious feeling for the square.

When not operating, the fountain area functions as a walkway, and all pedestrian activities on the fountain surface remain completely normal. This design has high aesthetic value as the square surface is preserved without obstruction from fixed fountain basins, creating an open and airy feeling.

In-ground fountains are designed with flat surfaces, without raised edges or deep pits, ensuring safety for pedestrians and recreational activities in the square, especially for children running, playing, and interacting with water when the fountain is operating.

Floating fountain

Floating fountains are creative and unique designs that bring a fresh breeze to urban landscapes, especially in musical water squares. Most systems, equipment, and spray assemblies are mounted on floating platforms, creating flexibility and continuous variation in fountain shapes and water spray effects.

The fountain can be easily moved and installed at different positions on the water surface, suitable for musical water squares with large areas or frequently changing landscapes. Water sprays from floating fountains can create many beautiful and unique effects, constantly transforming according to music rhythms or programmed shows. Combined with lighting systems, floating fountains become shimmering and magical at night, creating striking focal points for the square.
