Water Management
Design approaches to water systems, infrastructure, and landscape integration in urban and rural environments.
Water management encompasses the design of systems, infrastructure, and landscapes that capture, store, filter, and distribute water while responding to environmental conditions. Designers working in this area address both practical challenges of water scarcity and flood risk alongside cultural and ecological relationships with water.The community explores adaptive water infrastructure integrated with community spaces, terraced agricultural systems that manage runoff, flood-resilient urban planning strategies, and material approaches that treat water systems as generative design elements rather than purely functional utilities.
