Esta idea de negocio se origina en el llamativo y constante crecimiento de la demanda de servicios orientados a la atención de los animales de compañía, también conocidos como mascotas. En los últimos diez años, América Latina ha incrementado este mercado de forma doble cifra de forma anual. Basados en lo favorable de las proyecciones, es que este grupo de estudiantes de la carrera de Administración de Empresas se ha propuesto el reto de establecer un modelo de negocios que aproveche esta tendencia y presentar esta investigación para la obtención del grado de bachiller. El equipo de investigación identificó una oportunidad en el rubro de servicios funerarios de mascotas, en el que se encuentra la cremación mascotas. Se encontró que los competidores del rubro no han logrado obtener el reconocimiento de sus marcas entre sus consumidores. Esto brinda una oportunidad para desarrollar esta idea de negocio desde la diferenciación del servicio que logre captar la atención del mercado y así, posicionar la marca y fidelizar a este mercado. En los siguientes capítulos se presenta una propuesta de negocios con una oferta de valor responsable que brinda la asistencia funeraria a los dueños de mascotas durante todo el proceso de la dolorosa pérdida, que tiene como premisa la empatía pues reconoce la importancia de estos seres en la vida de sus amos. Ángeles de 4 patitas busca asegurar que el último adiós también forme parte del conjunto de memorias que los amos desean recordar. / This business idea originates from the striking and constant growth in the demand for pet care services.

Projektet omfattar ett förslag till ett nytt krematorium på norra begravningsplatsen i Solna norr om Stockholm. I syfte att väcka debatt och utbilda almännheten vill projektet belysa krematoriets funktion i samhället genom en total insyn i verksamheten från den almänna gång och cykelbana som går utmed begravningsplatsens nuvarande staket. Med ugångspunkten att det allt mer sekulariserade samhälle vi lever i idag har distansen till döden blivit allt för påtaglig och utan en myndighet eller statsreligion som tar upp ämnet blir det nya krematoriets uppgift också en annan. Gemensamt för våra krematorium idag är en gestaltning som försöker uppnå en lågmäld andlighet utan tydlig koppling till någon religion. Det bidrar i min mening till en alldaglig monumentalitet och ytterligare distans mellan det mest naturliga som finns, livet och döden. Här visas hela processen från begravningsbilarnas avlastning, förvaring av kistorn i kylrum, förbränningsprecessen, hanteringen av aska och urnor. Med ett betydligt mer monumentalt och slutet yttre mot begravningsplatsen behåller anhöriga den värdighet som fortfarande i stor mån efterfrågas och ger byggnaden en tvåsidighet som spelar mot varandra i ett annorlunda uttryck. / This project contains a proposal for a new crematorium on the north cemetary (Norra begravningsplatsen) north of Stockholm city in Solna. Its purpose is to encurage to debate and enducate the public in what function a crematorium has in the society with a complete insight in the cremation process from the pedestrian and bicycle path that stretches along the cemetarys fence today. With the standpoint that this more and more secular society has a increasing distance to death and no authority or state religion that brings up the topic, the new crematorium also has a new function. Common for our crematories today is a configuration that tries to achieve a discrete spirituality with no clear connection to any religion. From my point of view that results in a ordinary monumentality and even greater distance between the most natural thats is, life and death. Here is the whole process shown, from the hurse´s unloading, storage of coffins in cold rooms, the incineration, to handling of the ashes and urns. With a considerably more monumental face towards the cemetary, the relatives will keep the dignity thats still is demanded in great extent which also gives the building a duality that interacts with eachother in a different expression.

Vi tenderar att tänka på tiden som att den går framåt, framåt längs en linje. Vi glömmer lätt bort att vår linjära tidsuppfattning bara är en konstruktion, så självklar för vår verklighetsuppfattning att den lätt förväxlas med verkligheten själv. Synen på tiden har förändrats radikalt genom historien, vilket illustreras väl av de olika sätt man har mätt tid på i olika århundraden. Fram till och med senmedeltiden upplevde människor tiden som ett oavbrutet flöde. Man försökte mäta tiden genom att imitera dess oavbrutna ström, tex som ett föde av vatten eller sand, som i fallet med timglaset. Med dessa metoder gick det inte att mäta längre tidsperioder. Det var först när man slutade tänka på tiden som en kontinuerlig ström och istället som en följd av enheter och perioder som man kunde mäta längre tidsperioder, med uppfiningen av det mekaniska uret. Vi har gått från en tid som var styrd av naturen, konkret och cirkulär till en tid som är linjär, mekanisk och helt abstrakt. / We tend to believe that time moves forward. Our perception of time is easily misunderstood as the reality itself. It is helpful to remember that throughout history one have perceived time in quite many different ways. Thus there has been varies of ways of measuring time. Until the late Middle Ages, people experienced time as a constant flow. Consequently time was measured by imitating this constant flow, for example by a stream of sand, as is the case with the hourglass. With these methods one could never measure a longer period of time. It was not until the conception of time changed and time was perceived as sequences of units and periods that it was possible to measure time for longer periods, with the invention of the mechanical clock. Time was once perceived as circular and controlled by nature; today it has become something mechanical, linear and rather abstract.
