Conceptual Design – Orthodox Cemetery Kallepeia
Cemetery is a highly heterotopic place (Foucault,1967). It is the place of otherness that is unlike ordinary cultural spaces we used to visit in our everyday life. In fact, in our contemporary society, a cemetery makes sense as soon as someone faces death. Thus, it is a place that no one wishes to visit.
Hence, a cemetery is a very challenging project from an architectural point of view. Architecture, usually creates spaces to celebrate life, usage and inhabitation. Therefore, the complete analogous project poses significant challenges for its design and implementation.
