The architectural elements that combined to make the gothic style was stained glass. Ribs were also developed into intricate masonry skeletons filled with increasingly lightweight masonry skins. Pointed arches and flying buttresses were typical of Gothic structures. Church walls were then decorated inside and out with arcades, engaged columns and colonnades, an applied filigree of tracery, and horizontal moldings.

What is the relationship between spirituality and Gothic architecture?

The relationship between Gothic architecture and spirituality is quite interesting. Gothic architecture is one of my favorites because many influences from other styles of architecture are added to the bold touch of the Middle Ages, which some consider strangely dark and grotesque. Certainly spirituality had much to do with the style that became known as Gothic architecture. One of the best ways to find out about this relationship is to read the assigned readings in the text for the course. The relationship is identifed very clearly in a fascinating manner! Try reading.

Victorian architecture is a mixture of Classical and Gothic elements combined in brick and steel structures.
