Inagawa Cemetery Chapel And Visitor Centre

The unusual topography and terracing of a cemetery in the mountains north of Osaka dictate the nature and proportions of its new architecture. The design of the roof defines the surrounding geometries and coloured concrete heightens the sense of permanence.
