This study helped me to clarify three aspects:

• The color palette:

I wanted to define what greens to use, for nature, trees and bushes. I wanted it to contrast with the reds of the brick and the blue of the sky, and find harmony in these.

2. The direction of the water. This is undoubtedly the element to which I wanted to give the most importance, so I wanted to see the distribution of both the stagnant water and the movement in the fountain jets.

3. The composition. Wanting to create a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere, I chose a symmetrical composition where the order of the elements was carefully arranged.
