Topic sensitivity between the death and burial, people generally confined to the archaeological discovery, on the study of funeral architecture focuses on art and culture and traditional customs and so on to discuss the content of the research. In recent years, with the development of the society, population expansion of funeral facilities increasingly scarce, this is undoubtedly provides an opportunity for the construction of funeral architecture development; At the same time, the ministry of civil affairs is also beginning to actively promote the modern funeral reform in China, as the body of the content of the reform, the design of modern funeral building are also gradually into the architect’s perspective.According to the existing funeral architecture of our country to visit, discovered the existence of many problems, mainly including the function of the space is not reasonable, serious environmental pollution, funeral spiritual expression. Due to early people don’t seriously, the lack of modern funeral building project design in our country, on the one hand, the lack of corresponding specification requirements and good design as an example, on the other hand, for the spirit of death and funeral culture the limitation of cognitive understanding, also make for burial space narrative drab, lack of new idea.Based on the above reasons, this paper starting from the origin of the funeral, through the perception of traditional funeral culture and space, this paper expounds the immortality of the soul of the funeral and burial buildings by buried to the development of a large tomb, to deepen understanding of the funeral culture and the funeral architecture. On the other hand, this paper briefly introduces the modern funeral building and causes, to evaluate the status quo of the development of our country’s modern funeral building, clarify its space design of the problem.For modern funeral building space organization, from its relationship with the urban space, according to its location, provide different scheme of the function of the scale, to deal with and the contradiction between urban development and expansion, at the same time, for its location and the surrounding environment put forward reasonable Suggestions and requirements. And then, starting from its own space layout, according to the technological process, clear its function space group, design of the living and the dead line, has formed a preliminary organization mode of modern funeral building space.Due to the particularity of modern funeral building function, the function of the space shape also have different requirements. Space classification research of modern funeral building, the public space sequence, funeral space, space cremated ashes placed three aspects carries on the analysis, to study the space shaping methods.Spiritual expression as the space characteristic of modern funeral building, its spiritual meaning mainly embodied in the quiet space, ritual ceremony and memory space. The above data are summarized, summarized from several aspects to the spirit of the interpretation of modern funeral building space expression.Comprehensive the above content, this article through the study of modern funeral building space design, summarizes the design experience and methods, the actual project design practice can play a certain reference function; And for our country’s modern funeral building space design to offer reference to the standardization, rationalization, in response to the modern funeral reform; Hope I can for the construction has the Chinese characteristic modern funeral building space, meet the demand of people to the traditional funeral spirit helped out. In addition, the modern funeral building space as the carrier of urban context inheritance, special theme of death and the cultural features make it has great potential, I hope this article can sprang out effect, attract more architects usually neglected in the construction category in the face. |
