Paris moderne, published in Paris in 1837 by the engraver Louis Marie Normand, is a plate collection of houses built in the capital's new districts and its outskirts, aimed at architects and builders. Its pictures are measured architectural drawings in pale sepia and grey, showing house elevations, sections and ground plans with crisp line work and window and door openings a designer could adapt for period townhouse or villa layouts.
