English term

gingerbread architecture

English to Serbian Art/Literary Architecture
In architecture and design, elaborately detailed embellishment, either lavish or superfluous. Though the term is occasionally applied to such highly detailed and decorative styles as the Rococo, it usually refers to the hand-carved and -sawn wood ornamentation of the Carpenter Gothic style.

Zanima me ovaj poslednji slucaj, "hand-carved and sawn wood ornamentation". Znam da je ova vrsta arhitekture vezana i za viktorijanski stil, ali se u mom tekstu radi o Skandinaviji, gde postoje kucice sa takvim izrezbarenim ornamentima.

evo korisnog linka ali svodi se na isto jer definicija iz Enciklopedijskog Eng-Sr rečnika Dušana Simića kaže:
barge-board - ['bA:rdZb:rd] n.
(arh.) ukrasna drvena oplata nad zabatnim gredama

agree M. Vučković : slažem se, a usput motivi su gotički ne gotski :)
