The image to
the left depicts our standard artificial rock fountain. (Click on
the image for a more detailed view.)
|
| We stock the rubber mold and cast this piece on site out of intrinsically colored grout. Shown here, we added actual sun-bleached cedar logs to the reflecting pool to further enhance the naturalism. The dimensions of the artificial rock are 7 1/2 feet tall by 8 feet wide by 4 feet deep. | |
|
This image shows water flowing down two of the four eroded trenches with live Eastern Woodland moss thriving under the lights and in the mist for a totally convincing effect. |
|
| Note the sophisticated coloration and the vivid detail only attainable by way of directly casting from nature. You will find no other artificial rock work in the world of this caliber, period! | |

The image to the left shows how we incorporated the two cap pieces to read as a monolithic geological formation. The illusion of a natural break allowed us to lock the two perfectly and convincing in place, then secure them to the base with steel pins. |

| Here
we are pumping the grout into the rubber mold (we now have in
stock) and vibrating it to eliminate air bubbles. Our mold was
simply bolted to the pre-poured footer pad (with water supply line
in place) and filled with grout right there in the lobby of their
corporate headquarters.

The image to
the left depicts the backside of the fountain. The layering effect
demonstrated here is also a good example of how our
Fossilrockwalls™ look- naturally layered sedimentary rock, gritty
in texture, and cold to-the-touch!

| Another
angle showing the incorporation of our client's logo with water
flowing through it and then at a fourth location nearby. Our
standard mold is, of course, without the logo shown here, rock
texture in its place.

Finally,
a detail shot of the corporate logo we cast into the front of the
rock feature.
