Recompose Seattle
Our Seattle location offers a space for friends and family to gather and contains the vessels where bodies are transformed into soil.
Cedar
Cedar is a space uniquely designed for personal time, private viewings, and hands-on care, like bathing or shrouding.
Gathering Space
The Gathering Space is a beautiful, intimate room that can accommodate up to 25 guests in person or 1,000 virtually for a ceremony. The room has a lectern for speakers and a screen for those who wish to show videos or photos. At the end of the ceremony, the cradle holding the body is moved into the threshold vessel and passes through to the Greenhouse, where the transformation into soil begins.
Greenhouse
Our Seattle location has 54 vessels which are housed in a large space we call the Greenhouse. Inside the hexagonal steel vessels, bodies transform into nutrient-rich soil. Our sophisticated composting system ensures that the soil meets regulatory and internal thresholds for safety and quality. Our staff tend to the vessels during the entire process.
Tour Recompose Seattle
We offer both in-person and virtual tours.
This short video from King 5 captures our space beautifully and allows you to walk through the Gathering Space and see the vessel array where bodies are transformed to soil.
