Studio

Close-up of light refracting through moving water

Rill designs and builds water features that are engineered as a single piece with the glass that carries them — not a fountain purchased off a catalogue and set in front of a wall someone else specified.

Every commission starts with the water: how it should move, how fast, how loud, what it should look like from three metres and from three centimetres. The glass — its texture, its thickness, its optical properties — gets specified to answer that question, not the other way around. That ordering is the whole difference between an integrated piece and a fountain with a glass backdrop.

We work directly with architects and general contractors from early schematic design through commissioning, and we hold every installation to a structural sign-off and a full seasonal service plan before we call a project finished.

How we're structured

A small studio, deliberately: a design lead, a structural/flow engineer, a fabrication liaison, and a site-commissioning specialist on every project. We do not subcontract the engineering — the same team that models the flow signs off on the structural glass calculation.
