Memorial temple–still accepting ideas

There are still a few days left to submit design ideas for the Seattle Memorial Temple project, an attempt to both build a memorial for the Capitol Hill shooting victims and to provide their friends and family with a place to gather and grieve. No decisions have been made yet as to where the memorial will be located, what it’ll be made out of, or if it will be set on fire. (The project was inspired by the work of David Best, a sculptor who creates temples and then burns them in an effort of catharsis.)

Design submissions are being accepted through Monday, April 24th through a variety of mediums. My favorite idea is some sort of floating memorial in Lake Union, but that is probably highly influenced by my view of the lake.
