BSC invited to participate in the exhibition ‘Exit Architecture’ at Art Omi, featuring The Evergreenhouse.

EXIT Architecture is a speculative look at designing for the afterlife in all its potential architectural and design forms. This exhibition presented a critical and speculative look at the present and future of this realm of design. Our entry, The Evergreenhouse, envisions a new model for the interment of the dead and celebration of the living through the creation of a crystalline mausoleum where human remains become the growing medium for a botanic garden. Scaled to contain a large tree, the gathering space for visitors and internment ceremonies sits above a subterranean vault accommodating the garden’s root systems and containers for the interred.
