House for an Art Lover
Tel: 014 3534770

Inspired by Charles Renie Mackintosh designs. In 1901, Glasgow’s most famous architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh entered a competition to design a ‘House for an Art Lover’. The competition was set by a German design magazine which sought entries to design ‘a grand house in a thoroughly modern style’, and challenged architects to develop ideas which were fresh and innovative. Mackintosh worked on his submission together with his new wife, Margaret Macdonald, a decorative artist. The result was a portfolio of outstanding designs,which have since been admired by Mackintosh enthusiasts throughout the world. Situated in a beautiful parkland setting and adjacent to magnificent Victorian walled gardens, House for an Art Lover is truly a unique venue.
