Full textPå norra begravningsplatsen tillkommer nu ett krematorium som skall vara en byggnad som gifter sig väl med landskapet, med generösa arbetsytor ochvälkomnande anhörigdel. Tanken är att krematoriet skall vara lika mycket en industri som en plats för anhöriga att ta avsked på. Det centrala gestaltningsgreppet har varit att utforma en väl fungerande arbetsplats med effektiva lösningar i logistik och teknik men också att klyva byggnaden med cortendetaljer för att leda in de anhöriga. En liknelse till vad vi egentligen är ute efter som anhöriga. Att pausa en flödesriktning av dagligt arbete och kistväg för att ge de anhöriga ett sista avskedsmoment innan kistan rullar vidare in till ugnshall. Viktigt är också att skärpa sinnet för de anhöriga under avskedet. Att förstärka det faktiska avskedet. Genom en rumsekvens av slutande därefter mörker och koncentrerat ljus med en väl inkomponerad stenläggning för att därefter gå tillbaka genom en uppluckrande utsikt leds de anhöriga igenom och tillbaka i byggnaden.

Full textAbstract Cremation of the dead is increasing and there is a huge need for another crematorium in the Stockholm area. The concept and idea of the project proceeds from the idea that life is variably and that life of each human being is different and unique. The hypothesis for the project is a crematorium divided into three parts with separate entrances: one for the relatives, one for the staff and one for the undertakers. A crematorium, with merged volumes and various heights and materials that contrast, the eternal, the inconstant. The exterior consists of five buildings attached to each other, with a variety of heights. The trimming is made of load-bearing concrete with sections of windows, breaking up the compact impression of the concrete, creating views and insights and permits daylight into the crematorium. Two of the buildings have coppertrimming. A solemn and ceremonial feeling, without religious connection, has been the basic idea and theme for all parts of the crematorium.

Full textThis project is focusing on creating a new crematorium at the Northern Cemetery in Stockholm. A crematorium is a complex building where both the handling of coffins and urns, personell areas and areas for relatives have to intervine, without competing with each other. This project has involved analyzing the flow and spaces necessary and using this to make spatial units that create an atmosphere of contemplation and silence. It has been important to work with both the interior and the exterior rooms of the buildning, the walk through the cemetery towards the building is just as important as the space where relatives and staff meet. During the process of the project I have been working with folding walls in a landscape of birch trees to come up with this specific design of the building. The slender trunks of the birch trees and the buildings simple concrete walls of various heights is creating a landscape of direction, something the site previously lacked. The building material is a white concrete and wich on selected walls are perforated to create a play of light in the rooms.

Full textThis project contains a proposal for a new crematorium on the north cemetary (Norra begravningsplatsen) north of Stockholm city in Solna. Its purpose is to encurage to debate and enducate the public in what function a crematorium has in the society with a complete insight in the cremation process from the pedestrian and bicycle path that stretches along the cemetarys fence today. With the standpoint that this more and more secular society has a increasing distance to death and no authority or state religion that brings up the topic, the new crematorium also has a new function. Common for our crematories today is a configuration that tries to achieve a discrete spirituality with no clear connection to any religion. From my point of view that results in a ordinary monumentality and even greater distance between the most natural thats is, life and death. Here is the whole process shown, from the hurse´s unloading, storage of coffins in cold rooms, the incineration, to handling of the ashes and urns. With a considerably more monumental face towards the cemetary, the relatives will keep the dignity thats still is demanded in great extent which also gives the building a duality that interacts with eachother in a different expression.

Full textThe structural principle of the crematory is based on two walls. The first creates a new border to the northern cementary. The second wall leads the visitor down the hill and in through the crematory. The actual border of the cementary is at the projects site not as well taken cared of as on the rest of the cementary, and a will to give not only the crematory but also the surroundings good qualities has been one of the most important parameters during the project. The crematory and its walls gives the site clarity and simplicity for the relatives, the employees and also for bypassers. On the hill at the starting point of the wall, a new entrance to the cementary is created. The crematory is partly situated under the pedestrian/bicycle path ranging along the cementarys western border. To prevent the crematory from turning its back on the existent destrian/bicycle path, that very path is given a new route on the rooftop of the crematory complex. In this way, the crematory naturaly integrates itself in the surrounding landscape and saves alot of space for the surrounding park. The walls have a granite facade, on the upper wall with a rough surface intended to blend into nature and on the lower wall with a polished surface to connect it to the crematory building rather than the landscape. Beeing exposed in every room intended to be visited by relatives to the deceased, this lower wall is a way for them to orient themselves during their visit. As a visitor you follow the wall from the cementary entrance, going south down a sligt hill the wall is getting higher as you move towards the main entrance to the crematory, which is a volume protruding from the lower wall. The spaces intended for the relatives are located close to the main entrance, and the most important of those rooms is the room where the relatives collect the urn. In that rectangular room, which has an exterior and an interior space closely connected, you are surrounded by the lower wall on all sides. The exterior space a tree stands surrounded by a pond, whose reflections and shadows give life to the materials. To create a good environment for the employees, the rooms have been organized to fit the crematory process, from the recievement of the chest to handing over the urn. Paus- and officespaces are located in the south part of the building, closley connected to the chest recievement room. The connections between the crematorys different rooms are intended to create spontaneus meetings between the employees, and also with the visiting funeral directors.

Full textWe tend to believe that time moves forward. Our perception of time is easily misunderstood as the reality itself. It is helpful to remember that throughout history one have perceived time in quite many different ways. Thus there has been varies of ways of measuring time. Until the late Middle Ages, people experienced time as a constant flow. Consequently time was measured by imitating this constant flow, for example by a stream of sand, as is the case with the hourglass. With these methods one could never measure a longer period of time. It was not until the conception of time changed and time was perceived as sequences of units and periods that it was possible to measure time for longer periods, with the invention of the mechanical clock. Time was once perceived as circular and controlled by nature; today it has become something mechanical, linear and rather abstract.

Full textThe task was to create a crematorium at Norra Begravningsplatsen, Solna. The building itself is very much an industry, but there is also a big need to design suitable rooms for visitors and the staff working so close to death everyday. I have focused on the visits of relatives, and their walk to the crematorium to receive the urn with the ashes or attend during the cremation. The project is site specific as I have worked with 5 existing weeping willows. I choose to make an alley, between the trees and the crematorium, which I call the Memory Lane. The living trees are reflected in the concrete facade, as a negative, a shadow. The negative of the trees are a symbol of death, death is a shadow of life, and wouldn't exist without it. And although someone passed away, there lives have made an impact on our, just like an imprint on our heart. The walk along the Memory Lane is a grieving path, a produced walk. I have also worked with nature and light as tools for creating rooms that can be a comfort in times of grief.

Full textThe cremation process is both industrial and emotional. Thus, a crematorium must facilitate one primary course of events while also handling – filtering – secondary emotional stress generated by that very activity. But should the building as filter be a solid wall or a light veil between the dead and the living? How does one define an appropriate degree of permeability and transparency? And how do you cater to the well-being of both mourners and professionals? The architecture of crematoria has, since its introduction in the mid 19th century, evolved along with society's increasing individualism, specialization and secularization. Exploring aesthetic expressions and styles from classicism and national romanticism to brutalism, the intentions have been, in various degrees and combinations, ideological, symbolic, theatrical, functional and pragmatic. However, some features seem to be predominant. Strict geometry, material heaviness, dramatic lighting and the use of nature as a work of art are some examples, as well as processional, choreographed spatial movement and mystification of the cremation itself. These features are not only striking, atmospheric and beautiful; they are also represent power and distinction. The rooms constitute a didactic system of codes and values, silently mediated through physical elements. Irrespective of the architect's ambition and intentions – rhetorical monumentality or suggestive modesty – the spaces seem to evoke feelings of awe and wonder. Firm and unyielding, the buildings dodge any critical questioning. Given today's multitude of coexisting and continually developing philosophies of life and death, a modern crematorium should not pretend to be true, permanent or eternal. The only truth is that in death all men are equal, no matter the circumstances of our passing. This project therefore explores a non-authoritative architecture that does not reproduce spatial or aesthetical norms and conventions. An architecture that does not dictate certain moods or behaviours; that celebrates the extraordinary while attending to everyday life; that conveys dignity and stability without being imposing.

Full textA crematory is an ambigous structure: in part a functional facility where corpses are processed but also a building that require emotion and ritual to keep the crematory from becoming a death factory. In many cultures rites of passage are based on a common belief of what happens after death but these collective beliefs are scarce in today's post-modern society. One of the main questions in the project is how architecture can create meaningful space without inventing its own arbitrary rituals or compromising the building's functionality. Spaces of Passage is a crematory project that aims to create ritual through spatial sequences. The symbolic acts of the ritual are translated into physical places. Hierachically organised space with specific character enhance and foreshadow each step of the cremation process without sacrificing effectivness. The hypothesis is that the cremation process can be become a spatial ritual - a ritual created from form and relations. Every coffin that is transported towards the owen will pass through architectural moments, which convey a sense of dignity for the deceased, comfort for the bereaved and a a reminder that the work done at the crematory is of outmost importance. The resulting architecture is a crematory with functional spatial sequences where industrial spaces have aestetic qualities. Without studying how people interact with the actual building it is hard to evaluate if the spatial sequences have gained ritual value but the proposed crematory is indeed a clear attempt at creating emotional significance in an industrial process.

Full textIn the beginning of “My Struggle” Knausgård writes that the idea of transporting a dead body upwards is against nature. This was my starting point. This crematorium is about a movement upwards, for the dead but also for the living man. The crematorium is traditionally a low and heavy building which has a practical explanation, but I would also like to claim that it is related to our view of death. Our strong tradition of earth burial has affected the design of the cremation, for example Catafalk lifts, and the fact is that the majority is still burying their urns. There is thus a strong connection to earth, as the classic Bible quote consolidates. But today, when you are no longer born into the swedish church, when 90% of Sweden's population is cremated and there is a constant increase in secular funerals, isn’t time for a new approach? A coffin is cremated and what remains is ash. Ash is light and spread with the wind. I have chosen to explore this connection to air, wind and height, while trying to keep the building's weight and solemnity.
