The brief

Sedgemoor Crematorium wanted to create a welcoming and sheltered waiting area for guests to their site, enabling them to feel comfortable and protected whatever the weather.

The response

A sustainably sourced mono pitch timber canopy was designed by our team to complement the beautiful natural surroundings of the crematorium. The sheltered waiting area features a mono pitch, allowing fresh air to circulate under the canopy to enable guests to feel connected with their natural surroundings whilst still protected from the elements on particularly hot, rainy, or windy days.

The wow

Sustainability is fundamental to everything we do, with all our materials rigorously sourced for longevity and all our timber fully FSC and PEFC certified. This guarantees that tree planting rates for the timber we use always exceeds harvested quantities.

All our structures also come with an industry leading 25-year lifetime guarantees, giving you the peace of mind that the tranquil spaces we create will be there for guests for decades to come.
