Mackintosh was one of the most sophisticated exponents of the theory of the room as a work of art, and created distinctive furniture of great formal elegance. In Glasgow, you will see the finest examples of his buildings and interiors and examples of his creative collaborations with his wife, the accomplished artist and designer Margaret Macdonald.

We are delighted to have
added The Mackintosh Club in
