unvaulted
Lacking curved ceiling
Unvaulted describes a space without a vault—an arched ceiling or roof.
An unvaulted room has a flat or open ceiling rather than the curved stone or brick construction typical of cathedrals and cellars: The unvaulted chapel felt modest compared to the grand nave.
The word also appears in contexts where something has been removed from a vault or secure storage.
