Description:

Annotation for the project “Commemoration center in Sysert” The project presents the concept of a complex of buildings for ritual services in structure of the memorial landscape park. Relevance of the chosen topic undoubted. The difficulties and unresolved issues of this topic increase every year. In many cities around the world, the population is growing, which creates a shortage of burial sites. According to global statistics, the vast majority of city cemeteries are overcrowded, and alternative burial practices (cremation, resomation) are becoming more widespread, especially in regions with a high population density. However, in Russia, due to the lack of cremation culture, there are still some social stereotypes regarding the implemented practices. Therefore, when designing such a space, architects also consider ethical factors to attain the necessary atmosphere. The project is located in Sysert, where there is a possibility to form this type of object. Sysert town is a comfortable place for the migration of the age population from the nearby millionaire city of Yekaterinburg, in the context of which this topic becomes relevant. To be exact the design site is situated outside the town`s border in a forested area. Thus, choosing such a site (within walking distance, yet covered with trees) the author proposes to prevent the isolation and alienation of the site. In the context of the chosen typology, the spatial embodiment of the object should be perceived as a symbol of the eternal, transcendental, monumental.So the philosophy behind the project is based on the judgments of the Italian researchers L. Migliorati and L. Mori about commemorative practices. The researchers treat commemorative practices as the representation of periodically repeated attempts to merge with the past, the allegory of a historical timeline with the cyclical rhythms.This judgment is the starting point in the development of a spatial solution of object. The author presents a historical timeline as an enfilade of ceremonial halls that shape the scenario of the ritual (entrance square - foyer - mourning hall - refectory hall - urn transfer hall); the representation of the cyclical rhythms is a cantilevered ring-shaped gallery, which functions as a mediatheque. The project model of ritual service is offered as actualization of the typology of ritual objects existing in Russia, most of which currently operates according to the traditional method of burial or uses outdated technologies.
