The Indigo project has begun and I have started to look into what the two words mean to me. After writing down words that I relate to decadence and austerity I decided to focus on the idea of decadence within religion and religious places of worship. I don't want to focus on one cultures religion in particular but rather scared places in general. I want to look at the lavish and overwhelming side of the architecture and interior's of these spaces.
Here are some images that I found to start me off:
