A shift in people's relation to burial traditions and issues of space brought the need for a new, more nature-friendly means of burial practice. Batlleiroig designed a Krainer wall structure, ready to host plants and wooden urns that contain the ashes. With time, the wooden logs and the urns will disintegrate, leaving behind a slope overgrown by plants that will further change through the passing of seasons. This reference to the cycle of life effectively acts as the memorial whilst providing more efficient use of land, infrastructure and other resources. Besides the progressive and innovative solution, the jury was also charmed by the elegant design of the Forest Path and its forest-edge ambience. ]]> https://landezine.com/forest-path-in-the-roques-blanques-cemetery-in-the-collserola-natural-park-by-batlleiroig/feed/ 0 https://landezine.com/kerckebosch-woodland-garden-by-strootman/ https://landezine.com/kerckebosch-woodland-garden-by-strootman/#respond Tue, 16 May 2023 12:00:49 +0000 https://landezine.com/?p=93013 Combined garden and woods Imagine spending time in a garden that feels more like a wood.

The simplicity of the circle is challenged by the playful displacement of the logs and by orientation. The elegance of the shape is contrasted by the rough treatment of the surface of the logs. Furthermore, there is an ambiguous relation between the Fire Ring having a public or private feel. In this regard, the jury appreciated the scale, being too large for groups to claim it for private use and too small to lose the sense of 'togetherness'. In terms of the overall attitude that shaped this object, and in the words of the designer, the Fire Ring transcends» one's own body, local culture and global lifestyles«.
