Proposal for extension of the existing Haslum Crematorium designed by  John Engh in 1962. The original design features two enclosed gardens as backdrops for the ceremonial spaces; to minimize impact on the existing structure the proposal introduces a new underground water garden as the backdrop for the new visitor space, accessed from a new pavilion tucked in between the existing concrete walls. In this way, the new visitor experience is a completely new spatial experience where view, reflections and light create an ambigious and abstract space, while still relating strongly to the concepts of the original design.
