drinking fountain

Drinking fountains are old and new. In the nineteenth century they were often placed on squares or in parks, but mostly as a water element of a large ornamental object and often with a historical charge. But these are not always or no longer really “drinkable“ water... Today, there is a renewed demand for drinking water supply: a new urban element or facility in the squares and parks. It is a small (urban) object that stands alone or in line, aligned or against a wall, but no longer as part of a sculpture. It is an ‘urban element’ on which one can, as it were, lean... A search for a design that is more in line with the furniture of the city and that also meets requirements in terms of hygiene and user comfort. For example, we think of accessibility for people in wheelchairs.
