 I would go even further. I think it is more spiritual/religious. Though I’m no big fan of those words. 

Imagine how the architect for an amazing wonder wouldn’t even live to see it finish.  They are designing it for a different purpose. 

The architectural details, for example, of a cathedral are beyond beautiful. Something we simply do not do today because we lack the….devotion to the spiritual pursuit.
