Project Title: Sanctuarium
Location: Araneta Avenue, Quezon City
Project Status: Completed
In a strip along Araneta Avenue in Quezon City, known to be the prime location for the funeral and memorial businesses, the iconic Sanctuarium already stands as a city landmark. It towers at a number of 12-storeys with 4 basement parking levels designed to cater to funeral ceremonies and services with the convenience of a 5-star hotel.
Upon its conception, Sanctuarium presented a new challenge—a typology different from usual, at least from the context of local memorialization. It opened in 2006 and became the first with a mortuary, crematorium, columbarium, religious chapels, and retail built into one structure. With the facility housing 25,000 vaults along with 28 chapels, it also has been regarded as one of the largest columbariums in Asia.
