Architecture and Death, Alexandra Van Orsdale

"A project that uses as its starting point the fact that death is inevitable and that coming to grips with one's mortality is an essential part of living an authentic life. Such an exploration is important at any stage of life but becomes increasingly poignant as one ages and approaches one's own end."
