The Water District is a location in Elemental.
Background
The Water District is one of the towns located within Element City. It is served by the Wetro. It is the place where most of the Water residents live.
All of the buildings have waterfalls of the side of them. Most buildings are made of glass and are multiple stories tall. Everything in the Water district is translucent, transparent, slick, and reflective. Brook Ripple's house is located here, as shown in the feature film where Wade Ripple invites Ember Lumen to his house and eat.
Supervisor Jun Han Cho says of Brook's house: "At the same time, we wanted to have fun—her apartment is essentially a big indoor pool. There is a feeling of contemporary architecture—concrete, glass—but there are also pool noodles, lane lines and pool floaties for furniture." [1]
According to Jennifer Chang, color and shading art director, "If Firetown is represented by the reds, oranges, yellows—warm, and dry—then the water district is the opposite of that," she says. "It's full of water, and it's a cooler palette. Everything's more slick, more reflective, more translucent, more transparent. And it's a world that represents some danger to Ember. When she's in that world it's uncomfortable."[1]
