Architetture per la cremazione / Architecture for cremation

Abstract

Sono pochi i paesi (tra cui il Belgio) che, di fronte al rapido aumento delle richieste di cremazione in Europa, hanno investito in modo significativo nella creazione di nuovi spazi per la cremazione, rito iniziato agli albori della storia umana. Come tutti i riti, il rito crematorio si svolge all'interno di un apparato spaziale fatto di soglie, diaframmi, spazi intermedi che registrano e amplificano la catena degli azioni rituali. Il saggio presenta alcuni crematori contemporanei per far emergere i molteplici principi compositivi che guidano la progettazione di spazi che, comunque la si voglia mettere, appartengono alla categoria delle forme sacre.

There are very few countries (including Belgium) that, in the face of the rapid increase in cremation demands in Europe, have invested significantly in the creation of new spaces for the cremation, ritual which began at the dawn of human history. Like all rituals, the crematorium rite unfolds within a spatial apparatus made up of thresholds, diaphragms, intermediate spaces that record and amplify the chain of events. The essay presents a some contemporary crematoria buildings in order to bring out the multiple compositional principles guiding the design of spaces that, however you want to put it, belong to the category of sacred forms.
