The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is a trade periodical of architecture and building, published in Chicago by the Inland Publishing Company around 1887 for architects, builders and the building trade. Its plates are mostly photographic reproductions of finished houses, institutional building plans and elevations, plus an advertisement for steel erection. A designer could draw on the restrained Prairie and Craftsman-era house facades, with their hipped roofs, dormers, banded stonework and deep porches, and on the crisp floor plans set out in grids.
