From the jury protocol: The Project dedicates itself to the valediction, the entombment and the remembrance. Central to the imaginative concept is the dialogue between the bereaved and the decedents. Better: the illusion of the dialogue.



Thereby, the process of parting and remembrance is understood as a
dynamic event and thus implemented visually, as a meta-form on a so far hostile area, the Wegedreieck between train tracks and two state highways. Even in this congested area, the design is capable of generating a
reassuring and under certain circumstances contemplative atmosphere.





The visionary design is complexly applied: Before the sepulture in oil takes place, the body and life of the deceased is scanned and archived. The meaning of the architecture stands aside in a narrower sense. Rather a formerly dead space is now dominated through a lively and interactive installation, which carrying media for the answer of the deceased, is
represented in the field of poles.







The high-tech vision uses contemporary media, puts the dead urban space in between and over the most important traffic axes of Stuttgart alive and may in its bias fulfill the necessities of certain target groups. The concept will expedite the dialogue between the dichotomy of individuality and public installation it is emotional and stimulating even for the uninvolved.
