Recollection: How to harmonize the flowering of columbariums and your cinerary space?

The cemetery is a place of remembrance. Its mission is to encourage families to reflect.

Today, more and more families are opting for cremation. This choice should not prevent the wishes of the deceased's loved ones from being respected. Cremation does not prevent families from wishing to pay their respects (repetition)

To this end, the law of December 19, 2008, which came into force on January1, 2013, requires communes with more than 2,000 inhabitants to install a memorial garden and a columbarium. A memorial garden is a space for scattering the ashes of the deceased. A columbarium is a set of cubicles containing cinerary urns for the ashes of the deceased.

The creation of a garden of remembrance with natural elements, a plaque or a stele indicating the identity of the deceased makes it easier for families to pay their respects.

As the garden of remembrance is a collective space for the scattering of ashes, some families prefer to opt for a more individual choice, such as the columbarium, which gives priority to remembrance, notably through flowering.

Floral columbaria make it easier for families to pay their respects

Families can add flowers to the space surrounding their loved one's plot. Thanks to their varied shapes and colors, columbariums can be harmoniously decorated with flowers. Flowers can be planted to create a place of remembrance and respect for the family.

Columbariums provide privacy for families. You can easily add a bench, a stele or other elements to accompany families in their meditation.

A well-maintained cinerary space is essential. It enables the loved ones of the deceased to overcome their grief and regain peace and serenity over the long term.

Granimond understands the importance of flowering columbaria for family remembrance.

Granimond's columbariums with floral borders for family remembrance

Columbarium flowers are harmonized by their various shapes and colors. Our columbariums are also modular. Thanks to their aesthetic and harmonious appearance, our cinerary arrangements blend into your site and integrate easily with your existing furniture. This helps families to reflect.

We offer columbariums with floral borders to ensure the privacy of families:

  • Semi-elevated columbaria : These cinerary spaces can be used to harmonize flowering thanks to their diverse and evolving shapes:
  • The PRESTIGE range: This model offers families an individual floral space thanks to its shape (circular, wall-mounted or angular) and its front or horizontal opening;
  • The JARDIN À LA FRANÇAISE range: This design is reminiscent of the aesthetics of Jardins à la Française, and respects the privacy of families.
  • Raised columbariums: These harmonious columbariums respect the family's reverence through their floral overhangs, their high construction and their modular shape:
  • The FLORIARC range: This model has the distinctive feature of being customizable, with staggered doors and partitions separating each family. Individual burial is possible on the floral overhang in front of each plot. This columbarium can be built with concave or convex curves to create waves of privacy for families;
  • The COLOMBIER RECTO/VERSO, ÉTOILE and COMPACT ranges also feature individual flower overhangs to enhance family privacy.

We also create customized columbaria with individual floral borders and other elements (a bench, a stele, etc.) to ensure that families enjoy a pleasant retreat.

Committed to the respect and dignity of families, we have developed regulations to help you design and harmonize your columbarium. We keep you up to date with current legislation, so that your columbarium always complies with cinerary regulations.
