Water plays a vital role in shaping our built environment, as it has done for centuries. We depend on it, we use it, we live with it and we must respect it. Aquatecture is the first book to outline new ways of 'designing for water,' using examples from around the world to illustrate methods of utilizing water innovatively, efficiently and safely.
