The Schweizerische Bauzeitung is an 1883 Zürich periodical for engineers and architects, issued by the Swiss engineering and architects' society and the Zürich polytechnic's former students' association. Its pages mix trade advertisements with architectural competition plans and technical equipment drawings. The engraved line plans of building floors and elevations, and the crisp product engravings, suggest clear layout and labelling conventions a designer could borrow for diagrammatic floor plans and catalogue-style advertising.
