The work outlasts whoever ordered it.

San Antonio was laid out around water before it was laid out around streets. The acequias came first. The grid came later.

We still build like water is an afterthought — a hose bib, a sprinkler, a drain. A fountain is not decoration in this city. It is continuity.

Cast concrete fountains, basins and courtyards. Designed and built in one shop, here.

Read

Slope, drainage, soil, sun, canopy. What the site is already doing.

Draw

The symbol worked out by eye and by number until every curve is right.

Form

Birch ribs laminated and sealed. One jig per curve, each existing exactly once.

Pour

One morning, no second draft. Then the planting and the water that keep it.

• No synthetics on the ground — mosquito and fire-ant control included.
• No decomposed granite in a channel. It migrates in rain, stains the walk and tracks indoors.
• No plastic or aluminum edging.
• No cut or fill inside an oak’s drip line.
