\u201cWe shall not cease from exploration
\nAnd the end of all our exploring
\n<\/span>Will be to arrive where we started
\n<\/span>And know the place for the first time.\u201d
\n<\/span>T.S.Elliot<\/p>\n

It is a matter of searching for calm and make peace with the impressive landscape of Hoog-Kortrijk.
\nThe cemetery of Hoog-Kortrijk is a serene place that folds with the landscape, with plateaus that slip rhythmically over the slope.\u00a0The strength of this place is born especially from its extension and vastness. It is very important to maintain\u00a0the perspective and the silence.
\nThe new crematory is covered with earth and green as the landscape, making part of it.
\nOn the roof of the crematory one can recognize some figures of the light and sky, in granite, metal, glas and stone.\u00a0The new crematory will breathe light and sky, water and landscape, for us the essential things.
\nThe crematory will not become a church or chapel, with a religious or mysterious ambiance. Nor will the crematory be a house with a familiar ambiance.
\nThe new crematory that we propose will become an extremely sober and righteous building, for a clear and dignified farewell.<\/p>\n
