FROM ACTION TO DISCOVERY

How the interaction works

01

Choose the pieces

Select pipes and elbows and connect them to the available sockets.

02

Make a pathway

Build a continuous route from the supply toward an open outlet.

03

Test and rebuild

Observe the discharge, then change a junction or direction and try again.

A CLOSER LOOK

LEARNING THROUGH PLAY

What visitors can discover

This concept brings construction, flow paths and design iteration into a shared water-table setting. Visitors can explore the idea at their own pace and compare what they notice with a partner.

Spatial reasoning

Elbows and connections turn a planned route into a physical structure.

System thinking

Every connection contributes to the complete water path.

Iteration

Testing reveals where a construction needs to change.

PART OF A BIGGER WATER TABLE

Planning Pipe Building

Keep the front and rear edges accessible for rearranging pipes. Develop easy-to-use connections, loose-part storage and a clear discharge path into the tray.

The arrangement can be developed for a museum, science centre or play space as part of a custom water table. Final dimensions, materials and operating performance are established during design and engineering.
