site plan

Project idea: 

Death is the end of life. However death is the start of a new life. 

We plan to establish a charnel house as a space where this world coexists with the other world and the dead coexists with the living person. 

The internal space is a space for the dead, while the external space is a space for the living person. The internal space is a static space, while the external space is a dynamic space. We hope that this charnel house has a rich outdoor space where the living people can enjoy.

One can enter to the charnel htuse through an entrance space from the entrance road. It is connected to the charnel house, Wt vJ. sum,ttlp platform, outdoor charnel house and sculpture park so that the worshipers think about our life in various outdoor spaces. It establishes a pavilion so that the worshipers recollect their life.

The charnel house is a middle area for this world and the other world connecting the heaven and the earth. Therefore it establishes the rectangle mass for the first floor symbolizing the earth, while it establishes the circular mass for the second floor symbolizing the heaven. It separates the space for life and death for each floor by arranging the subsidiary facility and management facility on the first floor and the charnel room on the second floor,
