What is the ribbed vault in Gothic architecture?

The ribbed vault is a key architectural feature of Gothic architecture, characterized by the use of intersecting arches that create a framework of ribs, which support the structure and distribute weight more efficiently. This innovation allowed for higher ceilings and more complex shapes, as well as the incorporation of large stained glass windows, enhancing the aesthetic and spiritual experience of cathedrals. The ribbed vault also contributed to the overall lightness and verticality that define Gothic style.


If you draw on gray hoodie fabric with sharpie markers will it look good?

As with all artwork, the time taken with the artwork determines if the work is good. Make your design on paper first. Sharpie markers are permanent and they don't come out, so it is worthwhile to finish your design on paper first and then copy it to the fabric. Remember that the colors will not be as bright on gray as on white paper, so adjust accordingly.
