Architectura domestica
Architectura domestica, a set of architectural plates by Alexis Chateauneuf published in 1839 and held by Heidelberg University Library, presenting domestic building designs for architects and builders. The engraved plates show street elevations, floor plans, and decorative details such as ceiling panels, staircases, and window frames drawn in fine line. A designer could draw on the orderly facades, the neoclassical window rhythm, and the precise linear ornament for historical architectural layouts.
