Rings of Remembrance

The design functions as a public facility open to all, and reimagines the handling of ashes as an act that integrates nature, architecture, and public ritual. It redefines how architecture can engage with death.It offers not only a space for ashes, but a place for the living — to walk, to remember, to find peace. Rather than fixating on permanence, it embraces cycles, lightness, and natural beauty as ways to commemorate. Ultimately, it aims to offer both practicality and poetry in a city where both are deeply needed.
