The Final Farewell, Mitford Crematorium
Amelia Swaby
The concept of death is both troubling and uncomfortable for people, sparking intense emotions throughout the grieving process. The Mitford Crematorium project aims to deliver spaces which are unique and responsive to the differentiating stages of grief and loss, whilst also providing a dignified and respectful environment for the mourning and the lost. This will essentially bridge the gap between the two entities of life and death to bring them together in a peaceful harmony whilst attempting to present a new outlook on death, acknowledging the ‘final farewell’ to be something of peace rather than anguish.
