H. Reilly is an analytical work on contemporary architecture written in the early 20th century. In this publication, the author delves into various facets of modern architecture, criticizing civic buildings, government structures, and residential areas while calling for a reassessment of architectural values. Reilly argues for a more thoughtful approach to design, emphasizing the need for buildings to reflect societal values and aesthetics. The opening of the work introduces the reader to Reilly's perspective on civic architecture, comparing it to clothing and suggesting that a city’s buildings are as revealing as the attire of its inhabitants. He notes that the character of towns is predominantly expressed through the architecture of their buildings, yet asserts that many of these structures lack attention to taste and cohesion. Reilly calls upon the public to take a more active interest in their environment, urging that civic buildings should not only be functional but should also uphold a standard of decency and beauty. Through this particular chapter, the author sets the stage for a broader conversation about the responsibility of architects and the societal impact of their designs.
