Entry Description

Death, which is one of the most poignant life events and an inevitable experience, is deliberately neglected by Chinese people because talking about death is looked at as a cultural taboo. This project aims to provide a prototype to support people who are troubled by death and have a high level of anxiety about death, primarily due to the loss of a loved one. It is a prototype in a religious place for citizens to promote positive death conversation and anxiety reduction. It helps users to have an inclusive environment to escape from the Chinese society’s silent attitude towards death.
