The Di Trevi Water Fountain is a charming fixture for the urban environment that will provide citizens with a dedicated place to access hydration that also doubles as a stylish planter.
The water fountain features a vibrant yellow finish that is expertly designed with a planter in the top section just below the drinking area and a collection section below that for dogs to drink from. When the user activates the water for a drink, the excess H2O that isn't consumed will drain downwards into the planter area to support plants before collecting in the bottom for dogs. This ensures no water is wasted to help deal with shortage issues and highlight conservation.
The Di Trevi Water Fountain is the design work of Sofia Veira and Rosana Sousa of Ereserv Urban Solutions.
