Travertine
Two back to back niche banks 3’ wide x 5’ deep x 7’ tall
Like many cemeteries, Memory Garden Memorial Park in Brea, California realized years ago a rise in cremation was permanent. Because of this, maximizing the potential for a developed area is more important than ever. They looked for opportunities to use underutilized space for memorialization. Creative, outside-the-box thinking lead to this unique idea of turning a window into a two-sided columbarium.
Benefits from this project
• We thought ahead. We built the outdoor portion of the columbarium under a protected overhang. This reduces cemetery maintenance. As a result, grounds crew no longer clean finger prints or water stains off glass windows.
• In addition to increasing the value of the existing mausoleum,
we created an aesthetically pleasing piece of architecture.
• The small footprint of a vertical columbarium saves ground
space while meeting the needs of a continually growing cremation rate.
• This helps better serve your families by offering internment options at a variance of price points.
Our turnkey capabilities and industry knowledge have proven to add value to businesses with hundreds of creative projects. We’ve been guiding cemeteries through changing trends for generations.
