At theme parks, botanical gardens, parks, landscaped areas of hotels or luxury resorts or for any type of outdoor space, creating an atmosphere or a special effect can be the difference between something that is great to look at and something that is truly spectacular and amazing.
The use of a custom designed misting system can make all the difference in the ambiance and mood as well as the overall look of a specific attraction, location or focus area. There is a term for this use of mist to create special effects and it is called Mistscaping®.
The Fog
For a botanic garden or a landscaped area of a resort, water park or even a public park, adding the appearance of fog rolling in and across the landscape can be very dramatic.
The fog can be thicker or more mist-like, giving that look of natural beauty and tranquility. It is particularly effective over ponds and streams and it is a terrific idea for wedding venues where couples may have photographs done on the grounds. With the use of high pressure lines that can be designed specifically to create the fog effects required it will look perfectly natural and can be used on demand.
Cooling Comfort
Around waterfalls, fountains or landscaped areas and next to areas where people may want to sit, walk or just relax the use of a misting system adds more than just visual appeal.
These systems can be designed to drop ambient temperatures by up to 40 degrees. Unlike traditional types of roof-mounted misters, these custom designed systems can be used virtually anywhere you need them. With experienced designers, the tubing and the nozzles are completely concealed in the landscaping elements.
This allows for a natural look without the visible signs of the tubing. Extremely quiet operating pumps are used to boost the water pressure and specialized nozzles to create ultra-fine droplets of water that not only create the mist and fog look but also the cooling effect.
Keep in mind this misting system can be used in conjunction with specialized lighting. In the evening hours the light from spotlights or floodlights can be diffused and reflected in the mist, creating an amazing outdoor space that is going to be the highlight of any type of commercial venue, pool area or landscaped location.
