Die Holz-Architectur der Schweiz is a late nineteenth-century architectural survey of Swiss timber building, written by Ernst Gladbach and published in Zurich by Füssli in 1885 for architects and builders. Its engravings show carved brackets, gable eaves, balconies and roof structures in wood, with ornamental bargeboards and corbels a designer could adapt for decorative trim or folk-style motifs.
