To the rear of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, is located the John Madejski garden. At the center of the space is a shallow elliptic pool. Steps gently descend into the pool, encouraging the visitor to engage with the water or spend time at its edge. Two sets of fountains are located at the waters edge at opposite sides of the pool.
