Stephens Stormwater Partnership
“Rain garden” sounds lovely, looks pretty, and works efficiently to filter stormwater.
The City of Columbia is surrounded by rivers and creeks that flow into the Missouri River, waterways increasingly affected by stormwater pollution. Our team produced a series of videos featuring green-infrastructure solutions and community partnerships.
This video highlighted a rain-garden development partnership with Stephens College. The challenge was to translate technical, data-driven concepts into something visually engaging and accessible.
I designed a title illustration that turns stormwater into a visual journey. Flowing waves of neon blues and greens morph into the organic shapes of a rain garden, with purples and pinks representing growth and renewal.
Each layer of water becomes a layer of the garden, showing how natural filtration works. The animation blends science and artistry, making a complex process feel bright and alive.
