Mackintosh Exhibition
The Mackintosh Exhibition rooms have been realised by contemporary artists and crafts people from the designs in the original portfolio, turning Mackintosh’s vision into reality. Visitors can compare these original drawings against each completed room. The resulting exterior structure and impressive suite of room interiors provide a spectacular insight into Mackintosh’s design characteristics. The ongoing interpretation and creation of the art works within the House are highlighted in a fascinating audio tour and DVD presentation.

Suite of Rooms
Below are details of the individual rooms available to view at the House. Some of our rooms have links which will allow you to view a panoramic view of the space. Click where you see the Virtual Tour logo!
The Main Hall
The Hall is the central feature of the first floor from which the other main rooms can be accessed.
The Dining Room
The familiar high-back chairs and a dining table stand firmly as a focus in the centre of the Dining Room.
The Music Room
In contrast to the high and spacious Main Hall and low, intimate Dining Room, the Music Room offers a bright and long interior.
The Oval Room
This was originally the Ladies Room, delicately formed in an oval shape, Mackintosh's favourite feminine symbol.
The Margaret MacDonald Room
This room presents a fascinating insight in the creation of the artwork from the Charles Rennie Mackintosh portfolio of drawings.
The Interpretation Room
This computer suite uses the latest visual technology to tell the broader history of the House and its designer and is ideally suited as an educational resource.
