A few students at Penn State are getting creative with sustainability.

The school hosted the Artful Rainwater Design symposium, according to inhabitat.

The group is part of Penn State University’s Stuckeman School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and is creating art in a unique way.

The symposium was a celebration of rain through different rainwater management designs.

A few projects are featured below, but for a full presentation, head to the student’s Tumblr page
