The Design
About Where the Soul Sleeps Kolumbarijum
Kolumbarijum pripojen hramu. Projektovan je i izgrađen uz poštovanje japanskih tradicija, nasleđujući tradicionalne japanske dizajne i tehnike. Prvo što vidite kada uđete u zgradu je eliptični simbolični spomenik sa trodimenzionalnom zakrivljenom površinom. Osvetljen je reflektorima postavljenim na plafonu i podu. Još jedan naglasak je drveni kasetiran plafon, koji je opremljen indirektnim osvetljenjem koje emituje svetlost prema plafonu sa sve četiri strane. Takođe uključuje moderne elemente, što ga čini dizajnom koji spaja staro i novo.

- Unique Properties
- Not only traditional construction methods and materials are used, but also modern ones are combined. Roof tiles are originally made of clay and cement, but in this project they are made of resin, which makes them lighter and more durable. This is a very important point in Japan, where earthquakes are common. I would also like to point out that fire resistance has also been improved. While reflecting traditional elements that have been passed down in Japan for a long time, the performance of the building itself has been greatly improved.

- It can be seen that the design was created with respect for traditional Japanese architectural styles and with sincerity to bring comfort to the hearts of the dead and visitors. It makes you realize that it is not enough for an architect to simply design a building in a self-centered and rational way; what is important is the feeling with which he designs it.
- Research
- The columbarium is a place where you can reunite with loved ones who have departed for the afterlife. Here, you can always reunite with your loved ones. The fantastical production inside the building makes you think so.
Perhaps you can communicate with the dead here.
Every aspect of the interior, including the ceiling height, finishing materials, colors and patterns, dimensions of each part, and lighting plan, has been carefully and meticulously designed. - Inspiration
- This project is the construction of a columbarium attached to a temple. The building is designed based on traditional Japanese architectural style, but with a modern essence. Respecting Japanese tradition, designs and techniques handed down since ancient times are used in even the smallest details inside and outside the building.
- Project Duration
- Project Duration : From August 2022 to December 2023
Project location : Osaka(Japan) - Operation Flow
- Although the design appears traditional at first glance, it also incorporates modern elements. When you enter the building, the first thing that catches your eye is the semi-elliptical monument. Spotlights shine from the ceiling and floor, creating a beautiful world with diffused light. It is as if a barrier separates the world of the living from the world of the dead. Visitors are soothed by the sight. The ceiling is a dynamic coffered ceiling, and indirect lighting is lit around it, gently illuminating the space with a high-quality feel.
