ETERNAL PEACE
The Forensic Medicine Centre is Hong Kong’s new mortuary and forensic hub with five times as much storage as the previous Fu Shan Public Mortuary, and the latest technology for infection control and occupational safety. The humanistic design of the NTFMC means that it is less clinically cold than traditional mortuaries, and more of a simple sanctuary, with windows, skylights, and open spaces that aim to create a tranquil haven which offers solace.
