Hi, guys! So today I've decided to work a little ahead and just go on to the next assignment now. The assignment pertains to religious architecture and what it means to involve religion into architecture and design. Architecture is about expressing a small idea into a large three-dimensional figure; this is especially true with religion. Regardless of location, religion is always a solid idea within any city or even country. Most structures dealing with religion seem very monumental and ornamental, and this is because all of those details are coming together to show the importance of that area's faith. Faith plays a ginormous role in most societies, and this was definitely portrayed back in the day with structures such as the Hindu temples in India. They have so many intricate details that it makes it almost obvious to tell that they're religious pieces. The details usually include stories, hence why it seems so obvious.
Below is an image of a Hindu temple that I found online. I'll be attaching the URL address for it underneath!
