About Discussions Projects47 Journals52 Competitions1

Funerary parks represent a shift in how societies approach death and memorial spaces. Rather than isolated cemeteries, these projects explore how burial grounds, crematoriums, and remembrance facilities can function as active parks that serve living communities while honoring the deceased.

The community examines innovative approaches including vertical and stacked burial systems, integration with farming and natural cycles, pet memorial facilities, and the role of death infrastructure within urban planning. Projects range from reimagined crematoriums and memorial parks to explorations of how funerary spaces can become civic gathering places.

In Light We Return

The project is to replace the traditional generic cemetery space with highly differentiated urban context, releasing the identical heavy stone-made tombs on the ground to various sensitive crystal-like prism in the sky, the tension between life and death, mortal and immortal, past and future has been reintegrated in increasing densified urban realms.

Urban Cemetery

As the urban contexte generates a difficulty to cut oneself off from the activity, the design is based on an introverted form. The exterior appearance reflect urbanity as the interior is a sort of protected parc. Two atmosphers, two landspaces. The moment of death is treated as a « passage ». All the design tends to reveal and to mark each temporality.

FLOWING TIME

“Respect the deceased” is Chinese traditional philosophy toward the death, therefore cemeteries always located at the best Fengshui positions, this kind of location always sit between mountain and water, form the situation of harmony between man and nature. The name of this design is called “flowing time” which indicate the infinity of time.

Re-Imagining the Urban Crematorium

Re-thinking crematorium and cemetery design in cities where a secular approach is undertaken to understand the psychology of the mourner without any religious bias. Segregating public, making provisions for a public park and a contemplative park, the proposal looks to make such sacred spaces approachable and experiential being perceived as taboo spaces.

PRAVIEK

Our design is the concrete Prawiek, which connects and woven the memory of the city with the memory of everyone. The building, which grows in an infinite upward spiral, is a vertical green space, a space for commemoration, and time of the whole city.

Good Death Best Park

A new cemetery in context of future. It contains all the dead bodies with an intention to solve the area problem and bring all the religion being together in the same place.

Primitive and Remnant of the Cycle

To eliminate the horror of the cemetery and to reconnect the departed one into our daily life, I believe that the cemetery can be more than a piece of land for resting the deceased. It can also be a decent and splendid place that situates all around our cities.

Joseph and Isaac

Cork.

A cemetery that utilises cremation to defend Shanghai from the rising risk of flooding. Using the ashes of those who are cremated, a flood defence system can be constructed providing a connection between the living and the dead.

A JOURNEY OF THE DEAD

This proposal redefines the concept of a cemetery and tries to marry the concept of a public space with the place where the dead go to rest... It explores the cemetery as an active part of the urban fabric. It allows for the journey of death to take place in a a public space without interrupting the daily activity of a city and vice versa...

Sara and Tara

The Hills of Shanghai

looking at the cemetery as a growing system that is given time to develop and sculpt itself, becoming an iconic part of the urban fabric and an ecological hotspot.
