Cemetery Master Planning and Design - Green Burial, Natural Burial, Memorial Nature Preserve
Small intimate memorial areas located throughout the developing forest facilitate outdoor funeral ceremonies and provide a quiet respectful place to visit.
The Cemetery Master Plan
Our goal is to enhance your cemetery's ability to operate efficiently, competitively and profitably.
The Cemetery Master Plan establishes the overall vision for your cemetery and details long-range development plans.
Communicate your Vision:
- Roadways and pedestrian trails
- Drainage and storm water facilities
- Earthworks, landscape schemes, and planting plans
- Memorial and gateway concepts
- Layout of supporting facilities (i.e. office, maintenance centre, funeral chapel, etc.).
Design Approach:
Earthartist landscapes seek a balanced and harmonious relationship between the natural and built environment. The sacred, natural quality of a cemetery greatly impacts the financial viability of the project.
Those who pre-plan often invest in a cemetery that provides a sense of peace or sanctuary. A creative and well thought out master plan provides the first step in creating such an environment.

As urban development continues to encroach upon the natural landscape, cemeteries throughout the world are becoming places where people go to enjoy nature. The purpose of a Cemetery Master Plan is to identify areas for expansion and other interment options. It also identifies design options to improve circulation and landscape design. The Financial Management Section identifies ways in which additional funds may be generated to fund additional maintenance and large capital projects.
