"Seirei" is a worship hall designed by architect Shin Takamatsu, part of the Myokenzan shrine complex.

I think it takes on sort of an "evil" or "dark side" aura here, like something you'd see in the LOTR, or "fascist" architecture.

@Twelvebit: I was actually influenced here by an English comics artist named Simon Harrison, who used to draw for the British comic 2000AD.
