Description

How would you change the way of living when you learned about your death? The project's ultimate design incorporates the concept of "Being-towards-death" to continuously build life stories with a personal tombstone that could be kept updating. It is a service-based, product service system. The system consists of an online platform, a memorial service that includes tree-planting, human-composting, and a ring-shaped gravestone. Users may utilize the platform as their own personal life journals, continually updating their tombstones as they create their legacy while still living. It reflects the related social context, initiative invites individuals to ponder on issues related to life and death while simultaneously promoting a green ecosystem and the concept of the circle of life. We are born from earth, and it is where we will return.
