| Sumario: | [EN] The existing shop is a former dwelling which seems odd amongst the commercial area big boxes. The program of the operation is no less ambiguous, as it merges commercial and ritual purposes. A generic box wraps the dwelling and its extensions, doubling the former surface. Its volume copies the surrounding ones while its shade refers to the conspicuously neutral grey suits of the profession. The public funeral home is located within the cemetery enclosure. It opens the surrounding wall with a timeless colonnade which sinks into the darkness of the building, below the natural sloping ground level. Seen from the cemetery, the new building surfaces like a large slab among the graves. |
