This project was born as a model of culturalization and promotion of water conservation education. It proposed the creation of a building that would be responsible for spreading the culture of these topics in a context that matched its purpose – Xochimilco, with its long history as a lacustrine region and its water canals.

The main focus of this museum was water, so the conceptual idea of the project centered on creating a space that would be as huge as its importance. This was achieved through a giant water mirror that gave the sensation that the building emerges from it. The museum can be accessed by crossing two crystal bridges. The first one takes you to a central plaza that has the appearance of being an island in the middle of a body of water. The second one connects to the main plaza of the building. A huge volume with a stained glass facade, whose design resembles the undulations formed in water when a rock is thrown, welcomes you. On both sides of the main building, two volumes emerge with cascades that produce sounds associated with water as you approach the museum entrance. They are also covered with vegetation, except in the middle part where there are some stained glass panels that illuminate the ramp and stairs area. The project includes permanent exhibition areas, temporary exhibition areas, a cafeteria, administrative offices, a playroom, and a library.
