Water: Designing for the future

Natural disasters, water shortages, toxic effluent—the element of water poses ever greater challenges. Our handling of this vital resource will define the future development of humanity and of our planet. The exhibition Water shows design concepts from across the globe that have the potential to radically reshape our future. By offering innovative solutions to acute problems such as water scarcity, pollution, and impaired water cycles, these works from design, architecture, art, and science are opening up new routes out of the current water crisis.
