The prompt for this model was steam punk. My idea originated from watching shows like Arcane who showed an underground city who live below the rich. In my mind this lower city would need to scrounge for resources such as water. The inverted umbrellas act like a funnel for excess water falling from the upper civilization. Silas then uses this water to sell a plethora of different products at his stand.
This is my initial sketch showcasing my idea for the upside down umbrellas, wind machines, and other energy collection methods.
