On my mind - Groin Vaulted Ceilings

Lately, I've had these ceiling on the brain.  They're called "groin vaulted ceilings"(try working that term in at a dinner party!), and the term relates to the intersection of two barrel vaults.

Not sure why I've been noticing them as of late; but when I see one, they always stop me in my tracks.

Look what goes into creating one from a construction standpoint.  Wow.

Such a lovely architectural feature.

I love the repeating effect on this terrace.

What are your thoughts on this type of ceiling?  Do you like it or would you pass on it? M.
