@popmol A bunch of German cathedral architects in the 16 and 17 hundreds.

The term Gothic was given to the style by a bunch of French and Italians who looked at Germans and Eastern Euros as backwater hicks and barbarians so called it " Gothic' as an slight against it. Basically the name " Gothic" was meant as uncivilised.
