The following are some of the pictures taken during my internship at the headquarters of Warka Water Inc. Bomarzo, Italy. Project by an Italian Architect Arturo Vittori. The project is an installation which collects water from the atmosphere such as dew, condensation and rain. It an ideal solution for access of portable water for places where water is not available. The pilot project is located in Ethiopia and a current project is been headed at Haiti.









The inspiration for the Warka project were from the textile used as a mesh to collect water. Once Arturo Vittori noticed water being collected on top of this textile, which was used to harvest olives. From there on developing and evolving versions of The Warka Tower, to help solve real world problems.
