My Final Project

This is where I will start defining my final project idea and start to get use to the documentation process.

Research

In Mexico there are areas where it is almost impossible to recover any water since everything is paved and rainwater is completely wasted when it goes directly to the drainage, so I thought of an aesthetic project that not only serves as an ornament on rooftops but also soon solves a basic need such as water.

For my final project, I want to build a tulip garden that collects rainwater, filters it, and stores it for later use at home. In principle, the flower will open and close by means of humidity sensors, the stem will have different layers of natural materials for the elimination of heavy metals and the pot will be a container for the liquid, depending on the size and place of placement, it can be used for garden irrigation or for supply in non-potable facilities (washing machines, toilet, shower, etc.).

2D and 3D Modeling

Here's a bizarre sketch of what I thought

How and where to use it?

The plan is to replace some synthetic plants from the rooftop garden with the water collector I thought I would call "the water lady", to adorn the roof, but at the same time have the ability to capture and store water in rainy seasons.
