+ Holograms
+ Nature
As Halogreen is a religiously inclusive company and most graveyards are on the property of religious institutions, the building needed to reflect the grand aspect that the religious institutions provide to the burial sites.
A study by Stanford revealed that “walking in nature could lead to a lower risk of depression.” Thus a major inspiration for the building designs allowing lots of light and making most of it a green house.
