Las plantas acuáticas son un valioso recurso en el diseño, sobre todo para otorgar carácter naturalista a los espacios. Si bien los estanques con vegetación tienen su origen como mimesis de los humedales naturales -ecosistemas asociados al agua-, su conformación y estructura varía de acuerdo con las características que presenta el cuerpo de agua. El establecimiento de estas comunidades vegetales es espontáneo pero, también una oportunidad de diseño. De tal manera, la plantación de humedales se propone como un acercamiento estético y ecológico.

Ponds with vegetation were originated as mimesis of natural wetlands. The conformation and structure differs according to the characteristics of the body of water. Establishment of these vegetal communities remains natural, but there is room for design. These ponds in public spaces are sites of attractive vegetation, fauna habitat, a possibility for preventing floods in urban areas, a sutainable urban pluvial drainage system, temporary reservoirs and biological filters capable of receiving graywaste fromthe buildings in order to purify them before rejoining the natural currents. There are well known techniques for building tular beds as a way of treatment for served waters, but their potential as a visual and habitat attrction has not been enough in urban atmospheres. We can design water handling in agreement with the body form that contains it and use the liquid's own flow characteristics.
