London Physic Gardens: A New Necropolis

Part 2 Project 2018
Sam Coulton
Bartlett School of Architecture (UCL) | UK
Inspired by Derek Jarman and Yves Klein’s work the project is a proposal to introduce a resomation necropolis and physic garden; in which our relationship with death is readdressed through the implementation of a botanical garden on the site, fed by the nutrient rich effluent water generated through the process. This environmental method, in which bodies are converted into water, allows us to see death as something potentially beautiful.
