Death and funeral are awkward subjects that we often try to ignore. However, here’s a creative and innovative take on the scariest aspect of a funeral or burial, that is, the Coffin.
A coffin, also known as a casket is a funerary box used to display the body of the deceased during the funeral service, and eventually bury it or get it cremated in a crematorium.
Traditionally, you shall find plain and sober caskets to honor the deceased in a peaceful way. However, shown below are some strange and bizarre coffins for you to explore.

It is an egg-shaped biodegradable coffin made of starch and plastic. The body is placed within this capsule in a fetal position and is planted in the ground like a bulb.
In addition, a tree is planted on the surface to mark the grave as a living memorial. The Capsula Mundi burial containers have been designed by two Italian designers in an attempt to remove the taboo associated with death and burial.
