For landscapers, students, designers, and pond owners, The Artquatica Pond is both guide and reflection, an invitation to see ponds as living systems, not ornaments.
The Artquatica Pond: Art, Ecology and the Purpose of Ornamental Ponds is a quiet narrative about water, ecology, design, and the life that flows between them. It blends reflection with hands-on guidance, mixing science with story, humour with insight, and tradition with fresh thinking.
This book is about the ecology that makes ponds truly alive: how water, plants, fish, and unseen organisms work together to create balance and beauty through creativity and design.
Across ten chapters, it introduces key ecological principles, water quality, offers insight into design and management, and examines the common pitfalls of ornamental pond making.
A pond is more than decoration. It is a living system. This book reveals the art and ecology behind its design, written as both inspiration and resource for landscapers, designers, students, and pond owners who want to go beyond surface decoration.
