For this design, I wanted to bring attention to the Roman fish pond to the south of the Via Lougi Tosti and the aqueducts to the north. I think it is interesting how still today we do not know exactly how the Ancient Romans got water to the fish pond and some aqueducts. I decided to design a water museum to allow people to learn more about Rome's history with water. There would be historical exhibits as well as interactive exhibits such as building your own aqueduct, an open roof to allow rainwater to fall into the pond below, which is also being filled by fountains from the entry. Small streams of water take you from the main "river" that is now out front of the building going down Via Lougi Tosti and visually connect us with the Roman fish pond and the aqueducts. The river also branches off to create quiet areas and places for people to relax and enjoy the water and nature.
