The Water Villa is a large virtual space with four gallery buildings arranged a large pool. Each of the four buildings has a unique layout and contemporary art-deco inspired style. Two of the buildings have an upper level, with a balcony overlooking the central pool. There is also a walkway across the outdoor pool, which connects the buildings on the east and west side.
The Water Villa is good for large exhibitions, but can also be used for small or mid-sized exhibitions by only using one or two of the buildings.
You can see the layout of the gallery in the map below.
The largest gallery building is on the west side and is called “The Lookout”. It has 3 rooms on the lower level, and two rooms connected by an open balcony on the upper level.
To the south side of the pool there is the “Fish Tank” which is connected to the lower level of The Lookout. This room has floor-to-ceiling windows along two walls of building, giving a view of the pool.
To the north side there is the “Wedge” building. This building has two levels and is connected to The Lookout via a glass corridor. Inside the Wedge there is a small staircase connecting the small upper and lower gallery spaces.
On the east side of the pool there is the “Lake House” gallery, which has a lot of wall space for displaying exhibits in three long rooms. This building looks out across a picturesque lake, and has plinths in the lake for displaying sculptures or other 3D objects. The Lake House is connected to the Fish tank via a glass corridor.

The décor in the gallery can be selected before you start adding your exhibition content. It is possible to choose the floor and wall materials in each room, as well as the materials for the door and window frames, and the skirting at the base of the walls.
You can see some images of the gallery below.
The basic gallery has a capacity for up to 258 wall exhibits (usually for pictures and videos) and capacity for up to 21 floor exhibits (usually for sculptures and other 3D objects).
If you have a quarterly subscription then you have the option of customizing the layout of wall and floor positions, and you will also be able to increase the gallery capacity. Alternatively, you can use the Water Villa as a starting point for creating a unique custom-made gallery and make changes to the space in any way that you wish.
The basic wall and floor positions are shown on the map below.
