There is just something about an attractive fountain that draws me in every time. I just got a glimpse of this one from the street and I had to double back to get a closer look.
I found it at an office complex in Scottsdale called The Pinnacle. The complex appeared to house offices of lots of financial businesses with a few insurance companies thrown into the mix but that fountain in the center sets it apart rather nicely. What a great place to take a break from work or to have your lunch.
I always find that the moving water of fountains give off a soothing sound.
ReplyDeleteI imagine lunch by the fountain would be very enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteWater hold an ancient attraction to us; it's pretty primal, I think. This one is enhanced by a very good-looking fountain.
ReplyDeleteLiving in a desert community probably makes a water feature doubly appealing! We all like the sound of water on a primal level, as Kate said.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat's an unusual design.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your sentiment about fountains. Perhaps they symbolize the flow of life...the water, like the days of our lives, keeps moving on. And the moving water dramatizes that energy that drives us.
ReplyDeleteWell, that's one interpretation... :)
I like it, Sharon! It must be particularly nice to hear it in the middle of your very hot summers.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a modernistic teapot. And it looks refreshing.
ReplyDeleteThat is one fine fountain in the perfect setting.
ReplyDeleteIt's a strong one, isn't it? It somehow reminds me of a Mayan pyramid.
ReplyDeleteI think it starts when we are children and love splashing in any water.
ReplyDeleteI think fountains are just so calming Sharon, the sound of flowing water or something 😊 I can see why you were drawn to this one, it's very different, as Jack said, a little Egyptian looking ☺
