Fountains

Laser Fountain

Laser fountain was designed for organization of Tehran beautification as an urban element. It was a recirculating fountain that sent water jet w through some nozzle into a basin. The trick is to arrange a laser to shoot out through each nozzle. Because of total internal reflection, the laser light will follow the arc of the water stream.

The long collimating nozzle helps generate a smooth unbroken jet of water. A simulator based on the beam tracing method is developed for this fountain in MATLAB by a group of engineers to proof the laser propagation into nozzle with arbitrary situations such as different materials, nozzle length and curves and laser wavelengths (color).

If you cup your hands under the stream, you are rewarded with a pretty handful of wet green, red or blue lights. I underestimated its attraction for hand washing, urban beautification, children playgrounds, Amusement park, museum, musical fountains and hotels.

Bamboo Fountain

A bamboo fountain was designed for organization of Tehran beautification, which was inspired from large bamboo. The nozzle was designed to out the water as bamboo leafs. Similar to the water maze, the design was modular and the parts was prefabricated. This fountain can be made in different size and dimensions according to the order of customers.

Water Maze

This design was the result of a class project about urban furniture and introduced to organization of Tehran beautification. In fact, it was inspired by the green mazes for hot countries to make cool places for different applications such as children playgrounds, parks, libraries, hotels, Official welcoming ceremonies, places for worship and etc. The water maze design is modular and the parts was prefabricated. The fountain can be made in different size and dimensions according to the order of customers. Quick and easy installation, development ability and ability to change the maze’s form are the special characteristics of this design
