Creating an ecosystem of objects to reimagine rain as a resource-- for interactive play and learning; tools for fostering new relationships with rain


"children are going to live a future affected by global climate change, and we need to give them tools to think critically about climate resiliency"

Phase 1: Research - existing rainwater collection systems
Phase 2: Workshop - exploring connections and inspiration through found objects
Phase 3: Expert Collaboration - distilling knowledge through three perspectives (loose parts education principles, public sculpture, and city centered greenhouses)
