Parting in matter,Reunion in spirit
People bid farewell to the ashes in a clear spring, let the current lead people to experience parting, merge into a waterfall into the garden, and the memories of loved ones are presented through projection. The material follows the clear spring to return the soil, while the spirit remains here forever to comfort those who come.

Stay in the woods
The end of life is no longer to stop the heartbeat, as long as people miss each other, they can still meet. Because of this,buildings do not have to encroach on the city's skyline, but stay in the woods at a very low profile, and the woods have also become a place for the city's residents to rest and relax.
Where do we part?
People carry the ashes of their loved ones through a forest to the parting circle. In the wooden pavilion in the middle of the calm water, the ashes were scattered into the clear spring to bid farewell to the dead.In the quiet water of the parting ring, people placed river lanterns to convey their thoughts in the flickering lights.
where do we reunion?
Slowly under the guidance of waterways and light, the ashes of water carriers experience the transformation of clear springs into streams and lakes and finally flow into nature in the form of waterfalls, symbolizing the course of life in the long river of time. And in nature, you are reunited under the same wooden pavilion, all grief is relieved.

This is a great project; such a tremendous idea; just probably the center area can be more specific in terms of the design, but good project in general.
