THE MUNICIPALITY OF NECROPOLIS
London, 2014

– Awarded The RIBA East London Architects Highly Commended 2014

The aim of this thesis is to reinstate the role of death into daily life and the urban grain, giving it a position of prominence and permanence, both socially and architecturally. This is a reaction to the capitalist approach of avoiding death and the relocation of burial sites further and further to the outskirts of London.
