Cemeteries address community needs in the most fundamental way. LSD focuses on creating dignified cemetery designs featuring quiet, contemplative spaces that serve the needs of visitors. We also address practical considerations, such as transportation flow, future expansion needs, and maintenance. When developing cemetery master plans, LSD addresses physical, on-site construction, expansion, or renovation, as well as financial and operational strategies for long-term cemetery financing. Our plans and designs address the character of each site; methods for enhancing the visitor experience; maintenance of physical and fiscal viability; and historic, spiritual, and political constraints; in addition to conventional design issues.
