The work is located at the bottom of the cemetery and, representing the closure of the internal path between the existing graves, it occupies a visually currently empty space.
It is constituted by two "wings", willing to follow the existing perimeter wall. The weather protection for visitors is guaranteed by the cover made of reinforced concrete.
The artifact is inspired by the neo brutalism , according with the austere atmosphere request from the place in which it stands, using the linearity of the constituent elements and the fair-faced concrete in its – visibly – finest form.
The front is characterized by a marble closure panels, positioned made of cast brass studs.
The work it is immediately detectable from a distance, as characterized by the total coverage angled frontally, enhanced also from the hole made in the course of work in the form of a symbol of the Cross.
