Recreation of the historical chafariz in contemporary public space. Totemic and playful, its textured steps provide a good non-slip surface for children to climb and drink. The grid at the base, whose holes emulate water droplets, is shaped like a concave plane that acts as a containment for overflowing water. The shape of the pouring spout acts as a dripper that directs the water and avoids drips.
