House for An Art Lover

The House for an Art Lover was designed in 1901 by Glasgow’s most celebrated architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Although it was not built during Mackintosh’s lifetime, construction began in 1989 and the House for an Art Lover became a reality in 1996. Visitors to the House are invited to view a series of Mackintosh exhibition rooms, where they can compare Mackintosh’s original designs against each completed room.
