Glasgow-born artist, architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868 -1928) was one of the principal exponents of the Glasgow Style movement and played a key role in shaping European Art Nouveau.
Mackintosh is celebrated around the world as one of the most creative figures of the early 20th Century. His home city houses the pre-eminent collection of his buildings, drawings and designs. 
Mackintosh made his sublime mark on three types of architecture; public buildings, private houses and tea-rooms, with the majority still here in Glasgow.  His buildings are notable for the elegance and clarity of their spatial concepts, the skilful exploitation of natural and artificial lighting, and detailing.   Take time to visit all things Macintosh during you’re stay. With twelve attractions in the city including The Glasgow School of Art, The Macintosh House and the Willow Tearooms it’s well worth browsing www.crmsociety.com for tours options and Macintosh trail tickets.
