Storage If you live in the country your water may come from your well or private storage place, which was dug deep in the earth to reach the level of water, much deeper than a water reservoir.



Distribution Pipes run under the street to carry it to you. As long as the level in the reservoir remains high, it can run right to your house without any help because water can climb back to the height where it started.



Delivery A pump is needed to push the water into pipes to travel upward into your house.



This book was made by Cliodhna Dill in Word & Image II during Fall 2015 (her Junior Year) using Meta and Helvetica Neue. She focused on experimenting with water-type.
