What Inspires a YURN Design? Behind the Stories, Shapes, and Heart
Take a little time to think about the kinds of things that remind you most of them — maybe simple objects, textures, or shapes connected to their everyday life, hobbies, or personality.
Sometimes it’s those quiet, familiar details that make for the most meaningful tribute.
That’s where our process begins.
Listening to Stories
Every YURN begins with a conversation. We don’t just make urns — we create personalized memorial art that tells a story. That story comes from you: the memories you share, the photographs, the symbols that matter.
These details become the spark for design — whether it’s the graceful curve of a butterfly’s wing, the bold form of a guitar, or the gentle texture of a favorite flower.
We listen carefully, because the story is what shapes the form.
The Creative Process
Our process often starts just like this — by listening, brainstorming, and refining ideas until the design feels just right. We explore shapes, textures, favorite colors, and finishes until the piece carries the spirit of your loved one.
You might share a photo.
A favorite hobby.
A phrase or lyric.
A cherished symbol (tattoo).
We take all of it into consideration, blending artistry with intention so the final piece is deeply personal.
It’s a Conversation, Not a Checklist
There’s no rush. This is about honoring a life — and every design deserves thoughtful time and care.
We work together through ideas until a concept emerges that feels authentic and meaningful.
If you’d like, you can share a few photos, stories, or anything that reflects your loved one’s style or spirit. That inspiration becomes the heart of the YURN.
A YURN Is More Than an Urn
At its core, a YURN is a sculptural tribute — a memorial art piece created with intention.
Each one is shaped by story and heart, making it something more than a vessel. It becomes a lasting piece of remembrance that carries meaning for generations.
We find inspiration in life — in the little things that define who someone is — and transform those memories into art that lives on.
