It sounds reminiscent of the Norwegian Stave Churches, which some
have said are reminiscent of Viking ships in construction and look
like inverted ships when you're inside. I have to admit the first
time I learned about Norwegian Stave Churches was at Walt Disney World!
There is a lot of further information if you search at Google.
Here's one site that discusses them:

Hope this is of (semi-related) interest!
All my best,
