Crematorium PAX / queeste

The client has been considering building a crematorium for nearly sixty years. Due to its Catholic identity, cremation has not been self-evident for a long time. The new building needs to match the style of the existing reception buildings from 1922 but also stand out and be distinguishable. Situated in a confined space, the crematorium demands a complete program that with a dignified, considerate and humane appearance.
