Aqualens
Allison’s most popular water feature was designed in 1999, as the centrepiece of a show garden at the 2000 Chelsea Flower Show , where she won a silver medal on her debut for “Garden of Reflections” (also incorporating more of her garden artwork). The fountain is based on a 2 foot (60cm) diameter acrylic sphere, filled and overflowing with water from a concealed pump. AquaLens sets this on a circular stainless steel platform, which in turn is set in a 5 foot (1.5m) diameter stainless steel contact-lens dish pool. The pool can be dug into a lawn, or set on a terrace or other firm level surface (the pool has a fitted collar so it sits level). We can create the Aqualens dish and sphere in any size.
Operation and maintenance are simple: The Aqualens comes fully assembled, just fill with water and plug in the lead for the electric pump. Options available include a fitted internal light, and a different size of dish. Click here to view the installation and maintenance document.

AquaSphere
set in a 4.75 foot (1.45m) square black polycarbonate pool, the acrylic sphere fountain (like AquaLens) is set on a square platform and normally finished in stainless steel for maximum reflective effect. Aquasphere was the first water feature that Allison designed and produced. The original prototype still rests at her garden in West Sussex.
TeePee
A 7 foot (2m) high sculpture in interlinked stainless steel triangles. It is set on a 5 foot (1.5m) circular base, with a back plate where it may be positioned against a wall. A fountain is set inside the TeePee, with three intersecting water jets.
Mesa
a pyramid shaped set of ten stainless steel square plates, set in a 4 foot (1.2m) square pool. A unique garden fountain. It can be made any size and customized in a variety of ways.
