To implement new cemetery design into our neighbourhoods. These spaces will provide the community a platform to tell their stories, to memorialise their history and roots, and most importantly to celebrate life. 1. To revitalise existing cemeteries that are filled to capacity and convert them into sustainable, sacred spaces with layered access that connects to the surrounding community. 2.
