A Construcção moderna
A Construcção moderna is a Portuguese architecture and building periodical published in Lisbon around 1900, presenting contemporary building designs and plans for a professional readership of architects and builders. Its pages show floor plans, elevations and sections of houses and palaces, with room layouts labelled in Portuguese, and a designer could take from them the clean geometry of symmetrical facades, grid-based plan drawings and the typographic arrangement of architectural sheets.
