Heaven.

I LOVE religious architecture of every denomination.  Religious architecture has the power to move me in ways that I have never experienced with any other type of architecture; it makes me want to bow down to the design Gods and give thanks everyday. I feel that when these structures fulfill their destiny and purpose, they can be powerful and resonate within you regardless of faith.  This chapel is in St. Maria de Feira, Portugal and took me by surprise when I logged onto Design-Milk.com.  Although I am not crazy about that staircase, (it's playful shape is very distracting), I'm loving the images! Job well done. To brighten your day, I will also include some images of my favorite, Tadao Ando.
