New concept for mourning announcements

Kateřina Šmídová

Annotation

We are dust and we turn to dust. Death is part of life. Depending on the socio-cultural conditions, it is associated with various traditions and also with an approach to the whole thing. The work is based primarily on our Central European customs and traditions, especially the Czech ones, regarding the last farewell. The aim of the design was to design a part with a different aesthetics and function. The new concept consists of a small-format obituary, which will offer the possibility of a small personal ceremony or farewell by burning it at the appropriate time. The important thing here is that fleeting moment when the party disappears.
