78 Derngate, Art Deco house museum in Northampton, England

The Georgian terraced house at 78 Derngate spans four floors and features black and white geometric patterns throughout its interior design elements.

Built in 1815, the house underwent extensive changes in 1916 when Charles Rennie Mackintosh redesigned it for businessman Wenman Joseph Bassett-Lowke.

The interior decorations combine elements of Art Nouveau and Georgian architecture, displaying intricate patterns and strong geometric shapes in each room.

Visitors can access the house through guided tours, explore the adjacent museum in number 80, and enjoy meals at the restaurant in number 82.

This residence represents the only Mackintosh-designed property in England and his final major architectural commission before retiring from the profession.
