Client Connection This is the first and one of the most valuable steps in the process. It is our first connection where we get to know each other, the vision and the expectations of the client. It is the point where we constantly ask questions and thoroughly discuss every bit of the project. Concept Research & Design After the initial brief, it is time for brainstorming. We proceed right away with the concept research and start designing draft sketches of the fountain. We examine all possible forms, scales and effects of water. This is the time when the most incredible ideas pop up -...

The fountain at McArthurGlen was designed neither to decorate nor accompany the amazing village-formed infrastructure, but to be the center of attention and actively create emotions. Since day one, every day and night kids and adults engage passionately with this fountain. Taking snapshots, getting wet inside it, becoming an illusional director for a moment or simply taking a break in the nearby cafés; this fountain was designed to be a lively part of each...
