We apply yarn to our design as an innovation. Through this design, we want to convey this message : The death of our loved ones doesn't mean the end. They become the air we breathe, the scenery in our eyes, the shade in summer, the fragrant smell and the eternal power in our hearts. Don't be so sad. Their departure is just another way to stay with us.

Circle of life

Future city cemetery design: In this project, we use "asylum" and "reborn" as the design theme. We believe that after the death of the human body, the flesh returns to the dust, and the soul will ascend to a "tree of life" to shelter the existing people, the flesh will die but the soul and spirit will be reborn in the form of "the tree of life".
