架构师提供的文本描述。设计工作包括在坟场现有地点加设一座接待所和一个火葬场。由于实际和环境方面的原因，举行仪式的地点和墓地的实际火葬地点尽量分开，同时对两者之间的关系保持一种概念。

Text description provided by the architects. The design task includes adding a reception building and a crematorium at the existing location of the cemetery. For both practical and environmental reasons, the locations for the ceremony and the actual cremation at the cemetery are separated from on another as far as possible whilst maintaining a notion of the relationship between them.

然而，一个节目通常包括两个部分的仪式。这将包括接受、哀悼和处理，所有这些都集中在生者和地球上，火葬本身也将导致我们中最无神论者向天堂投下一瞥。

A programme will, however, normally incorporate a ceremony of two parts. This will include a reception, mourning and processing, all of which are focussed on the living and the earth, and the cremation itself which will lead even the most atheistic of us to cast a glance heavenwards.

因此，这些建筑物应被视为横向相互反映、可以容纳接待功能的屋顶以及火葬大楼的位置。这种对比关系将在所使用的材料和细节上得到进一步发展。

The buildings are therefore to be seen as a reflection of one another in horizontal terms, a roof under which reception functions can be housed and a location for the cremation building. This contrasting relationship will be further developed in the materials used and details.
