FIFTY years ago, nobody starting a series of lectures on contemporary architecture would have thought of including 'The Office Block.' To-day, however, the office building has become almost as much the normal test and opportunity for the aspiring architect as the gentleman's country house was then. If one thinks of the most important buildings of the last few years, one finds that, along with Liverpool Cathedral and the London County Hall, there come Bush House and Adelaide House, and the new buildings on the Devonshire House site (for one of which, by the way, Professor Reilly was jointly responsible), and the new Lloyd's, and the new buildings in Finsbury Circus and St. Martin's-le-Grand, a striking photograph of one of which appears on this page. With the banks, the offices are providing the most impressive and the most conspicuous portion of the body of modern architecture, and Professor Reilly will discuss how far the problem of the office block, which had certainly not been satisfactorily dealt with before the war, has now been solved.
