Hastings Crematorium

In collaboration with Hastings District Council, Createus Group designed a new Crematorium to replace the existing obsolete chapel & crematory of 1944. Situated upon the same footprint of its predecessor The Hawkes Bay Crematorium has been designed to serve as a space for those saying their final goodbyes. As a nod to the Art Deco architecture of the Hawkes Bay region the building has an integrated covered Portico and main entry, opening out to the well maintained landscape. The facility incorporates a 130 seat chapel & restroom facilities for the public. With a well defined staff area, the staff office and crematorium chamber has separate external and internal access doors. Remaining mindful of the special role the building plays for members of the public it hosts, the chapel is designed and finished so as to curate a peaceful environment for final goodbyes. With plentiful natural light and overflow areas to the surrounding garden scape.
