UPside-down crematory, Bachelor's project 2017, Term 6
Limhamn , Malmö

Tutors: John Ross, ass. Gedeminas Kirkeidis
LTH School of Architecture

This proposal for a crematory in the abandoned limestone quarry in Limhamn takes inspiration from the site’s identity and orientation and translates that notion to a building envelope and internal walkways. Upp-och-Ner Crematory (“up and down” as well as “upside-down”) sits calmly in the midst of the reed field and its design mimics the site’s pathways and plateaus and invites the visitor on a journey in, out, up and down the landscape.
