Popular Memorial Designs: Trends
and Traditions
Traditional Memorials
Traditional memorials are a popular choice for a timeless, classic look. These headstones are usually made of marble, limestone, sandstone or granite and can include ornate details, adding unique touches to the design.
Modern Memorial Designs
Modern memorials tend to be a little sleeker than traditional headstones. These memorials focus on curves and a more minimalist aesthetic, where the name of your loved one and the material used are the most striking features.
Memorials with Personal Touches
It’s becoming more common to see memorials with personal touches. These can include images of your loved one displayed on the headstone, for example, or iconography representing a hobby they loved.
Eco-Friendly Headstones
Sustainability is an important issue to many. You can reflect the values of your friend or family member by choosing an eco-friendly headstone. This could be made of natural materials like locally sourced stone or granite, or recycled materials.
