I've always loved the serene feeling in a church or monastery. When I saw these images from the Novy Dvur Monastery in the Czech Republic in an issue of Vanity Fair, I never forgot it. Simple lines, white atmosphere. Awesome.
I've always loved the melding of old and modern architecture.
The arches are probably 17th century

This monastery was designed by Architect John Pawson
I was searching for the meaning of white, and came across this explanation:
It stands for wholeness and completion. In many cultures it represents openness and truth. It can provide clarity as its energy is complete.
White has purification vibrations and can be used to clear blocks from your path.
Put some white in your life when you want:
- to clear clutter and obstacles away
- to start a fresh beginning
- to bring about mental clarity
- purification of thoughts or actions
Interesting... it kind of goes with the detox, purge, purification theme this season.
