TUMULUS火葬场坐落于森林边的平坦田野上。设计的主要概念是以一种感性的方式去表现一个从平面升起的浅丘。
The crematorium is located on a flat surface – in a field by the forest. Mass concept of the design is a rather sensitive manner – it represents a shallow hill risen from the surface.

火葬场的设计隐喻着一个覆盖着白色亚麻布的土丘。建筑物主体和它的通道空间被周围景观的堤坝分隔开来。使人联想到仪式上的毯子的屋顶结构覆盖着建筑体量，并将其与周围的地面紧密相连。火葬场建筑是仪式的中心，可以从很远的距离看到。这栋建筑平静地收放着到访者，它是一个让情感释放的地方，也让人们体验着从属于永恒时间的安静转变。
Crematorium is designed with a metaphor of a burial mound covered with white linen. The volume of the building and its access spaces are separated by embankments of the surrounding landscape. The structure of the roof is reminiscent of a ritual blanket that covers architectural volume and tailor it into surrounding ground. Crematorium building is visible from a distant perspective and becomes the epicenter of the ritual. It calmly invites and releases those who arrive. It is a place of emotional discharge and a quiet transformation subordinate to the eternal time and the experience of eternity.

最终设计方案的价值和理念基于四个基本原则：
1. 一个概念隐喻，对形态和平面结构的探索起着决定性作用；
2.空间——为不同性质和仪式的空间，形成局部庇护所；
3.流程性，将几个基本方向上的空间联系起来，从外到内形成一个圆。按照仪式的步骤从一个房间移动到另一个房间；
4.材料——长期的混凝土。伴随老化的过程，永恒时间的隐喻和现代废墟的内涵将在外表面（又称外立面）上得到表达。
The values and principles of the final design were based on four basic provisions:
1. A concept metaphor that determined the search for shape and plan structure;
2. Space – of a different nature and ritual provision of space formation with localized shelters;
3. Processivity that would be tied with space in several essential directions outside – inside forming a circle. Moving from one room to another following the steps of a ritual;
4. Material – long -term concrete. With the process of aging the metaphor of eternal time and the connotation of modern ruins would be expressed on the outer surface aka façade.

室内空间的设计旨在为游客提供舒适的氛围。设置专门用于沉思和娱乐的空间是必要的。记忆仪式建筑形态可以为体验生命的一个阶段创造一个安心的情感环境，这样的设计在立陶宛乃至全球都赋有意义。这种建筑的共同点是专门用于精神和情感疗愈的空间。
Interior spaces are designed trying to provide a cozy and comforting atmosphere for the visitor. Spaces dedicated to contemplation and recreation are necessary. Form of the memory ritual architecture that could create a safe emotional environment for experiencing one of the stages of life is relevant not only in Lithuania. The common feature of such architecture is spaces dedicated to spiritual and emotional healing.

因此，内院系统被设计并交织在建筑结构中，并连接了内部和外部空间。木板作为所选材料被覆盖在室内墙壁上，也不失为一种创造更舒适环境的选择。
As a result, the inner yards system is designed and intertwined into the building structure, connecting inside and outside spaces. Chosen material – timber planks – covers the interior walls also a chosen to create a cozier feeling.

骨灰安置所公园是场地规划的下个开发目标，它由16个不同的室内场所和和几个开放空间组成，包含不同的地标、艺术腔调和沉思的空间。从火葬场建筑物——场地的正中心和仪式的开始——火葬场将会是最后的神圣仪式。骨灰安置所公园中的每一个微型空间，都是以可被识别，并与其他地方以及外部世界的喧嚣和日常生活的频率相区别的形式创造的。营造一个使人沉静的空间。
Next step for the site development is columbarium park, consisting of sixteen different indoor premises and several open spaces with different landmarks, artistic accents, and spaces for contemplation. From the crematorium building – an epicenter of the site and a start of the ritual – crematorium would be a last sacramental. Each of the micro-spaces in the columbarium park is created in such a way that it is recognizable and differentiated from the rest as well as the fuss of the outside world and the speed of everyday life. Allowing a space for calming.
