Woodland cemetary: Spaces

The cemetary is very large but ingenious manipulation of the ground, trees and bushes create many small places. Most of the landscaping is credited to Sigurd Lewerentzwhile Gunnar Asplundis responsible for all chapels but one. Although the chapels are amazing buildings the cemetary itself stands out as the best design. It took advantage of preexisting, often problematic, features and integrated them into the design. Looseness and extreme control coexists (a Lewerentz signature).
