I would like to consider some creative ideas for gutters and their design for those who also begins the rainy season and who wants to revive their homes from the outside.
Here are some ideas for different types of downspouts.
Urban downspouts for houses that are located on the streets next to sidewalks and gutters leading water directly into the ground.
Cheerful and Cool Rain Gutter Design Ideas.
Urban rain gutters on homes are common, but rarely look good or fit well with the design of the home. There are many ways to decorate and style a gutter that also allow you to collect rainwater for reuse.
In this building at Kunsthofpassage in Neustadt, Germany, gutters are shaped like musical pipes that pour water from one pipe to another.
Some drains bifurcate into the shape of flower pots and serve to collect water flowing through pipes for watering plants.
Another interesting idea is to shorten the gutter of the downpipe and place a container under it that collects rainwater, which can later be used to water the flower bed or houseplants in pots.
Some drainpipes are made up of a chain of smaller vessels that pour water from container to container, reminiscent of tiered fountains. Such devices look very nice, but cannot be used in colder climates, as the water pouring from them can simply freeze.
The easiest way to decorate a drainpipe is to equip it with a drainage pipe, as, for example, in the design concept "Cloud" by Dmitry Kulaev, producing "its own rain" during rainy weather. There are also many other drainpipe nozzle ideas that are both practical, creative and decorative.
If you are interested in collecting rainwater, the Bass van der Veer design “Water Drop” barrel, manufactured by Elho, will allow you to collect rainwater in containers and watering cans.
