When traveling through Italy with my rugby team in high school we visited the Trevi Fountain while exploring Rome. I particularity enjoyed this piece of architecture while in the city due to the sculpting and extravagance of it. I like the concept of bringing aspects of nature into architecture , and I believe fountains are a great way of doing that. I also enjoy the interactivity of the piece, people throwing coins into the fountain for wishes.

The piece, like many other amazing pieces of architecture had all sorts of people there to see it. The wide variety of ages, ethnicity, and languages was fascinating honestly. This architecture obviously spoke to a wide range of people and for that reason it attracted me to it even more. Art is meant to be appreciated be all, including the art of architecture. Architecture that can bring people together makes it that much more important to me. It also gives back to the people in another way, they collect the money that’s thrown in during the day every night and donate to charities.
