SOUTH HAVEN CENTRE FOR REMEMBRANCE
The South Haven Centre for Remembrance creates a new non-denominational facility for the City of Edmonton.
SHAPE Architecture – The design features of The South Haven Center for Remembrance, City of Edmonton – A symbolic thirteen-meter tower that emerges from the prairie landscape which makes reference to the existing gravesites, monuments, columbaria, and the latent memory that they embody. Our memory of visiting a cemetery is marked by time; the position of the sun, the quality of light, and the weather on that particular day. For some, The shining Black building may be a solitary visit for a ceremony, for others it may be experienced through ritual visits that span the rest of their lives. READ CHILDREN CENTRE
