Homes & Interiors<br />

by Susan Robertson<br />

Local Design<br />

Icon<br />

Charles Rennie Mackintosh is a name familiar to<br />

most, particularly in Glasgow. A design pioneer<br />

that shaped a creative movement and created an<br />

iconic style of unique and lasting impact is one of<br />

Glasgow’s local heroes.<br />

His renowned building at the Glasgow School<br />

of Art has been at the forefront of news and<br />

conversation recently due to the two tragic fires that<br />

have devastated the building and the surrounding<br />

area. It still remains to be seen what will rise<br />

from the ashes, but Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s<br />

influence can still be felt widely across the city, as<br />

well as through international design history.
