EDITORS COMMENTS
This premium design for the War and Foreign Offices in Whitehall, London, by architect John Dwyer, was the seventh prize winner in a competition held in 1857. The design featured a grand unified government building with the War Office and Official Residence. The War Office boasted five entrances, each leading to spacious, well-lit corridors, with the principal entrance located on Parliament-street. The Official Residence was situated fronting the parade in St. James's Park. Upon the first floor, a grand ballroom was placed, complete with five reception rooms en suite, providing various approaches, the main one being through a circular conservatory, topped with a glass dome. Two drawing rooms were reserved for the private use of the family. Dwyer's design also included a central courtyard, providing ample natural light and ventilation. Dwyer's labors were aided by the able assistance of architect Henry Parsons. The Illustrated London News published this design in 1857, showcasing the grandeur and sophistication of the proposed government buildings. The design was a testament to the architectural prowess of the time, blending functionality with elegance, and creating a harmonious and impressive addition to the Whitehall landscape.
