Confluence Park is a living learning laboratory designed to inspire people to gain a greater understanding of Texas ecotypes and the impact of urban development on our watershed. This engaging session will share knowledge from the architect and landscape architect as we discuss how low impact development strategies transform a former industrial laydown yard into a one-of-a-kind outdoor educational center serving the larger San Antonio community. Large gestures of the shaped land represent the five regional ecotypes in South Texas, while the pavilion petals are inspired by the structure of plants that funnel dew and rainwater to feed their roots.
