Single-Sided Water Wall

Lyon • 2021

In Lyon, we designed a water wall whose water is accessible only on the front face, conceived as a natural focal point set against a wall. The challenge was to fit a vertical water wall into a narrow format, perfectly watertight and silent, to enliven a space without cluttering it. Our solution is a textured surface down which water flows continuously in an even veil, fed by a low-consumption closed circuit. The flow and its gentle sound atmosphere bring freshness, movement and calm to the room. Standing 2.5 metres high and 1 metre long, this water wall stands out as an elegant vertical that catches the eye, improves acoustic comfort and creates a relaxing biophilic atmosphere. Designed bespoke, it adapts to the surrounding architecture and materials. In Lyon, this water scenography turns a simple stretch of wall into a wellbeing feature that gives rhythm to the space and lastingly enhances the interior layout.
