Schweizerische Bauzeitung is a Swiss engineering and architecture trade journal published in Zürich in 1883 by the Schweizerischer Ingenieur- und Architekten-Verein and the ETH Zürich alumni society, aimed at engineers, builders and architects. Its pages here are trade advertisements for German-language firms: a cast iron and pipe fittings listing, a Euböolith floor-covering notice, and an Art Nouveau elevator cabin with a decorative grille. A designer could draw on the dense typographic layouts of mixed blackletter and sans-serif display type, the ornate ironwork, and the boxed ruled borders of the period.
