FALLINGWATER SCAPES
About Us
Meet FallingWater Scapes’ owner & designer, Jonathan Marston
Jonathan built his first water feature at the age of 18 for his grandparents in Southborough, Massachusetts. After high school, he moved to British Columbia for a unique undergraduate opportunity that allowed him to study water features in one of the most scenic parts of North America. During that time, he interned with Vancouver’s top pond and waterfall builder, Streamworks Designs, where he developed a strong foundation for building beautiful water features.
In his final year of college, he petitioned the school to have him build a koi pond on campus, which was completed in 2016 and doubled as his undergraduate thesis project. Upon graduating, he moved back to Boston and officially opened FallingWater Scapes in 2017, which has since become a Master Certified Aquascape Contractor and an award-winning water feature company – taking home best pondless waterfall (see project) in the country in 2022 and best small project (see project) in 2021.
Today, some of his favorite projects are the ones that allow him to practice Frank Lloyd Wright’s principle of organic architecture: bringing nature as close to his clients’ homes as possible. When not building water features, you can find Jonathan hiking in the White Mountains for inspiration or writing articles for Pond Trade Magazine.
