Glasgow School of Art (1897-1909) is arguably the most important & world-renowned building in our practice history. It's described by the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society as the architect's 'masterwork'; one that defined his career & established his reputation #Keppie170

The former John Ross Memorial Church for the Deaf, 158 West Regent Street, Glasgow. Designed by Norman Dick and completed 1931, this is a beautiful building, with a lot of intricate carvings of animals around the door.

11) I believe in later years this was removed, so if and when the Lighthouse re-opens Margaret will hopefully be seen again in all her galvanized steel glory.’
6) It is difficult to tell how many of the drawings were by Mackintosh, although the elevations are undoubtedly in his style. They were possibly copies made by him to discuss with the builder on site, since there are notes scribbled on some of them.

7) While the set of construction drawings is incomplete, the highest numbered is 213. In those days, all the drawings were usually prepared by the architect, including structural ones.
