Forest Memorial
2021
A totally new approach is demonstrated here, so different in style from what the popular city necropolises offer. The project involves creating a simple columbarium - so that its design does not compete with the surrounding nature. The form is supposed to blend into the forest, into a space full of mature, rustling trees and lush shrubs. No different monuments, no concrete, no artificial plantings or numerous fences
Only a tall cuboid on the outside, clad with dark wood, fired with the shugiban technique. In the interior, there is a place for urns, in a memory wall made of lightcolored wood. Thus, the interior of the monolith, despite not having any symbolism, will take on a warm character. The openwork vault will provide access to natural light. Each fragment of the concept is to emphasize the relationship between a human and Earth.
