The newly constructed Methodist Women’s Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska is now home to Water Studio’s tallest curved Water Veil. Designed in collaboration with HDR and installed by Meyers Carlisle Leapley and Davis Erection Company, this water feature shines as the new hospital’s focal point in the lobby.
The unique arrangement of the water feature’s three elements creates a diverse form which appears to change with vantages throughout the lobby. Two free-standing, curved Water Veils, 12 ft. and 26 ft. tall, are clad in polished and brushed stainless steel to match other finishes in the space. Water flows over the surfaces of a 5 ft. natural basalt stone column which intersects the tall Water Veil. Underwater lights accentuate the cascading water textures on the Water Veils and the basalt column. Black granite pavers and a terrazzo surround conceal the stainless steel basin.
