Sculpting Water and Light
Three Environmentally Responsive Fountains
by Carol Snyder Halberstadt
Environmentally responsive fountains belong to their time and place. The ways in which they are designed and built cannot be separated from responsibility to the communities they are intended to enhance. In this era of global warming and a worldwide water crisis, it is especially crucial that a fountain fit its place, and be built with respect for the living waters it draws upon and the energy it consumes.
