Annotation

The subject of this thesis is a project of a crematory situated on an enlarged forest graveyard in Hradec Králové. The project is designed in a context of current attitude of Czech society to obsequies characterized by a still more noticeable absence of any formal ceremony. The project tries to offer an alternative to proper obsequies and to place the ceremony into a dignified space of forest crematory.
