The components that govern how the water flows in artificial swimming pools, where the mount-like elements get white from the sun, are gradually affected by stains, algae, and weathering signs.

The water fountain was created in concrete and influenced by natural rock formations and water flow patterns.

Weathering of the surfaces varies in speed and severity depending on location, water flow and sun exposure.

Everything about it makes the surface reading more interesting. Weathering of the surfaces varies in speed and severity depending on location, water flow and sun exposure. The concept embraces how the qualities of materials and the interactions of living things evolve over time and acts as a place of introspection and meditation within the busy Facebook campus. The water feature is made entirely of precast concrete and was fully built in the shop, brought to the site and installed.
