The mourning ceremony Hall Lisen
Žaludová, Kristýna ; Hrabec, Josef (referee) ; Šindlar, Jiljí (advisor) ; Pěnčík, Jan (advisor)
The new building of the Mourning Hall Lisen is located on a slightly sloping plot in the Brno-Lisen district. The concept of the plot’s layout fluently connects to the operation of the current cemetery. The unbuilt part will serve as the new cemetery with areas for standard burying to the ground, columbaria, a scattering garden, but also areas for non-traditional burying such as Bios Urn (after cremation, the ashes are placed into a special urn with a tree seed, which is put in the ground – the life of the deceased one thus symbolically continues in the plant). The tree motif pervades the whole building: it is present on the foregrounded façade through perforated aluminium panels, and it is used on the rounded wall in the interior entrance hall, on the door decoration and on subtle interior elements. The whole building is designed as a convergence of three masses. The operation part (technical facilities, employees’ facilities and survivors’ facilities) has an L-shaped ground plan and is the lowest mass of the object; the ceremonial hall is comprised of an exceeded block. The catafalque is emphasized by a glass-topped tube in the north-western part of the hall.
