Project info

The architectural intention of this proposal is to create a cluster of spaces in Vienna's sixteenth district, incorporating a crematorium, a columbarium, a non-religious chapel, and a centre for solitude. This space should not evoke unease in the surrounding community, but rather foster a stronger sense of belonging and interconnectedness within personal relationships and the broader network. It also aims to serve as a catalyst for personal growth and development. This vision is advanced through the thoughtful use of program, site orientation, boundaries, detailing, materials, lighting, and form.
