Michaelskirche, Munich, Germany [OC]

by
Looking down the nave with the gigantic barrel vault of the ceiling overhead, its only decoration being raised edges or frames dividing it into oval and rectangular sections. The ceiling and the rectangular arched columns supporting it are white. To the left and right are large red and gold altarpieces of side chapels. At center in the distance is the very large church altarpiece, with gold ornament and red cloth background.

Skylight at the Chicago Cultural Center [OC]

by
Oblique view of the large domed (from our perspective, oval) skylight, composed of thousands of light blue/white glass discs held together in metal frames that form a matrix around a central circle. In this circle are intricate floral and abstract designs and the 12 symbols of the zodiac. Around the base of the dome is a ring of orange/white lights, and the surrounding ceiling is a mosaic of intricate floral designs on a white background.
