Sweden just turned the humble water tower into art
In Varberg, Sweden, a leaky water system sparked a rethink of their aging infrastructure. Picture this: a town almost tripling its population since the 1960s, relying on an old UFO-like concrete tower that just couldn’t keep up. When the taps ran dry, the urgency became clear—a new solution was needed. Varberg’s answer? Transforming the mundane into the magnificent by creating water towers that double as eye-catching sculptures. This innovative approach ensures reliable water supply while beautifying the cityscape, reflecting the blend of practicality and creativity.
