1. Title: Revealing the Interior Wonders of Inveresk House: A Diagrammatic View of the Great Eight's London Abode Inveresk House, located at 125-138 The Strand in London, was the impressive new home to the esteemed publishing houses of the Illustrated London News, Sketch, Sphere, Tatler, Graphic, Bystander, and Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News during the 1920s. This diagrammatic cut-away view, created by renowned architectural illustrator G.H. Davis in 1928, offers a unique perspective into the interior layout of this architectural marvel. The building, situated on Aldwych and Wellington Street, was a testament to the journalistic industry's growth and innovation. The double-page spread reveals the intricately designed spaces that housed the various offices, each tailored to the specific needs of its respective publication. Beginning at the ground floor, the entrance hall welcomes visitors with its grandeur, leading to the reception area and the offices of the Illustrated London News. Further along, the Sketch offices boast a spacious studio filled with natural light, perfect for the publication's artistic endeavors. As we delve deeper into the building, we discover the Sphere's expansive editorial department, Tatler's fashionably designed rooms, and Graphic's art-filled workspaces. The Bystander's offices, with their practical layout, are situated near the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, reflecting the synergy between the two publications. The diagrammatic view conclusively showcases the harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics that defined Inveresk House, making it an iconic symbol of London's journalistic heritage during the 1920s.
