The death design space showcases contemporary designers who are re-designing urns, coffins, and caskets to make them more sustainable. These objects challenge the somber and ‘taboo’ feeling surrounding death by introducing objects in domestic settings with bright colours and sleek designs. This space functions like any store where people can come and purchase sustainable death designs which can be kept in their home as decor until they pass. By interacting with these products during the users’ lifetime, they are encouraged to reflect and familiarise themselves with their mortality in a setting that feels safe to them.
