  • Ecological Ponds and Aquatic Habitats
  • Decorative Fountains
  • Exotic Swimming Pools

We consider the natural flow of water in our design. We promote access to water and design with water thematically. Ekistics Design Studio has designed pond and aquarium environments as well as unusual and complex resort style swimming pools.

Our expertise extends from conceptualization through construction plan development to construction review and management. This includes project management of structural and hydraulic engineering to assure accurate interpretation of the design concept. Styles range from ultramodern to tropical jungle.

When utilizing fabricated rockwork, Ekistics develops detailed drawings of natural rock forms to accurately replicate naturalistic cliff and rockscape environments.
