Information, Email



architektonima, by Maya Christodoulaki, is a creative architectural practice forging a distinctive approach to spatial creation: it is both embedded in the materiality and the making of buildings, as well as, active in research and theory. The space-making methodology is rooted in a profound engagement with mathematical thinking and natural philosophy, and is practiced and applied using architecture, signals and weaving.

Kappl Cemetery
2020-2023

built project w/ Mario Ramoni
Nestled on the steep hillside to the south of the church of St. Anthony stands the new cemetery of Kappl. The work is conceived as a natural platform for contemplation, carefully designed to offer an unparalleled panorama of the Paznaun valley in Tirol that unfolds towards the southwest.

Defined by a formidable concrete wall to the south, the site traverses three distinct levels, seamlessly connected by two gently winding ramps. Upon arrival at the initial terrace from the adjacent municipal road, visitors are greeted by a single-storey concrete structure with an encased oak urn wall. Midway through the site, the visitor pauses where the two ramps change direction. Here, a sheltered outdoor sitting niche beckons with a strategically placed window and a serene water feature, crafting a moment of tranquillity that counters the upper building's presence. The journey through the cemetery's terraces finds completion as the visitor ascends back to the first level via a small staircase, guiding them to the entrance. This gentle circulation contributes to the solemn ambiance of the grounds, inviting contemplation within the serene embrace of nature and architecture.
