  Step 5: Designing Your Memorial

Design your memorial. From the ideas you have brainstormed in Step 4, choose the elements you would like to include.

Think about these questions when designing your memorial:

  • What's the goal of your memorial?
  • What features will your memorial have?
  • How will it be similar to existing memorials?
  • How will it be different from existing memorials?

 

Hint: You do not have to draw the memorial. If you are more comfortable describing the memorial or using images and photographs to design your memorial, that's fine. But simple sketches may be helpful for you and others to visualize the memorial.
