Sphere

SPHERE WATER FEATURES   /   360° GARDEN FOCAL POINTS

Sphere Water Features

Simple geometry, moving water and a choice of materials make sphere fountains some of the most versatile water features for modern and traditional gardens.

Choose polished stainless steel, Corten, rainbow sandstone, granite, limestone, slate or darker sandstone in sizes ranging from compact patio features to substantial architectural installations.

WHY CHOOSE A SPHERE?

A shape that works from almost every angle.

With no obvious front or back, a sphere makes sense in open positions where the feature will be viewed from several directions.

360° FOCAL POINT

Designed to be viewed from all sides

Spheres are particularly effective in courtyards, open borders and central positions where the view changes as you move around the garden.

SIMPLE GEOMETRY

Strong without being complicated

A sphere creates a clear sculptural focal point without relying on ornate detailing, making it easy to use in both modern and more natural gardens.

WATER ACROSS THE SURFACE

Movement over the whole form

Water generally emerges from the top and travels down the curved surface, changing reflections, colour and texture across much of the visible sphere.

CHOOSE THE MATERIAL

The same shape can create completely different gardens.

Material has more influence on the final look than the geometry itself.

POLISHED STEEL

Reflective & contemporary

Mirrored stainless steel reflects sky, planting, paving and architecture, with the appearance constantly changing as water moves across the surface.

CORTEN STEEL

Warm & architectural

Weathering steel keeps the clean spherical form but introduces orange, rust and earthy brown tones that work particularly well with grasses and timber.

RAINBOW SANDSTONE

Layered & individual

Warm cream, gold, red and brown bands become deeper when wet, making every sandstone sphere visibly different.

GRANITE

Refined natural stone

Grey and pink granite create a quieter, more architectural stone sphere with visible mineral detail and a choice of polished or textured finishes.

BLACK LIMESTONE

Dark & understated

Limestone becomes considerably richer when wet and works particularly well where you want strong contrast against pale paving or planting.

SLATE

Layered & highly textured

Cascading and tiled slate spheres create far more tactile surface detail than polished stone or steel.

BLACK SANDSTONE

Natural but restrained

A darker alternative to rainbow sandstone for contemporary gardens where warmer colours would be too dominant.

GREY SANDSTONE

Cool & minimal

Grey sandstone combines natural stone texture with a more neutral palette suited to modern paving and rendered surroundings.

RECOMMENDED AQUA MODA SPHERE COLLECTIONS

Four clear routes through the range.

Start with the material you prefer, then choose the size and finish that suits the garden.

ATERNO

Steel & Corten Spheres

Polished stainless steel and warm weathering steel spheres, from compact garden features to very large architectural installations.

EXPLORE ATERNO

LUNARI

Rainbow Sandstone Spheres

Natural sandstone with warm geological layering, available as individual spheres and larger grouped installations.

EXPLORE LUNARI

MONARA

Granite, Limestone & Slate

Natural-stone spheres in polished, flamed, cascading and textured finishes across several darker and more restrained materials.

EXPLORE MONARA

ECLIPSE

Black & Grey Sandstone

Darker sandstone spheres for gardens where you want natural stone without the stronger colour of rainbow sandstone.

VIEW SPHERE WATER FEATURES

CHOOSING THE SIZE

Scale the sphere to the space around it.

A sphere can look substantial on its own but considerably smaller once surrounded by planting or viewed from across a large garden.

COMPACT SPHERESBest for courtyards, smaller patios, raised borders and locations where the normal viewing distance is relatively short.
MEDIUM SPHERESA versatile choice for most domestic gardens, providing a stronger focal point without dominating the surrounding landscaping.
LARGE SPHERESBest where there is enough surrounding space to appreciate the proportions — larger borders, long sight lines and architectural or commercial settings.

ONE SPHERE OR SEVERAL?

Change the composition as well as the size.

A grouped installation can occupy more visual space without relying on one oversized feature.

SINGLE

One clear focal point

A single sphere works well at the end of a sight line, in a border or within a courtyard where the geometry can stand on its own.

TRIO

More width and visual layering

Three spheres at different heights create a broader composition and work particularly well in sandstone and slate.

REPEATED

Create rhythm through a larger space

Matching spheres can be repeated along borders, paths or landscaped areas to connect different parts of a larger garden.

MAINS OR SOLAR?

Choose the power source around the installation.

Selected sphere designs are available in both mains-powered and solar-powered versions.

MAINS POWERED

Consistent operation

Choose mains where a suitable electrical supply can be provided and you want dependable operation regardless of sunlight or weather conditions.

SOLAR POWERED

More flexible positioning

Selected Aterno, Lunari, Monara and Eclipse spheres can use solar systems, allowing the panel to sit separately in a sunny position while the feature remains where it looks best.

WHERE SHOULD A SPHERE GO?

Make use of the 360-degree shape.

Unlike a wall fountain, a sphere often benefits from space around it rather than being pushed automatically against a boundary.

Within Planting

Soft grasses and shrubs create an effective contrast with the strong geometric outline of a sphere.

Courtyard Centre

The shape makes particular sense when it can be approached and viewed from several directions.

Beside a Patio

Close enough to enjoy the sound and movement of water without reducing useful seating or circulation space.

End of a Sight Line

A substantial sphere creates a clear destination when viewed down a path, through a doorway or from inside the house.

FIND YOUR SPHERE

Choose the material first, then the scale.

Choose Aterno for steel or Corten, Lunari for rainbow sandstone, Monara for granite, limestone or slate, and Eclipse for darker sandstone. Then select a sphere size that feels proportionate to the surrounding space and viewing distance.
