The complexity of the site, an industrial environment and the imposing presence of the cemetery with its closure and its centuries-old cypresses, showed the need to design a building that held a special relationship with their environment, which has to serve the purpose of the building. The result is a garden of 2.200m2 where the personal use of the building allowed us to consider the use of an item that once formalized, in our imagination, found close to the user.
