Case Study
As part of the renovation of a historic World’s Fair site, a 310-ft long reflecting pool was reconstructed as an interactive fog garden designed by Quennell Rothschild & Partners. Fountain of the Fairs’ ephemeral, cooling cloud refreshes visitors on hot summer days while conforming to local water usage restrictions of no more than 25 gallons per minute.
