The Mackintosh House, Design museum at Hunterian Art Gallery in Glasgow, United Kingdom.

The Mackintosh House presents reconstructed interiors from Charles Rennie Mackintosh's original residence, featuring authentic furniture and architectural details from his 1906 home.

The residence at 78 Southpark Avenue, where Mackintosh and his wife Margaret lived from 1906 to 1914, was relocated and rebuilt when facing demolition in 1960.

The interiors demonstrate the modernist design principles that defined early 20th-century Scottish architecture through minimal decoration and strategic natural lighting.

Visitors enter through the Hunterian Art Gallery at 82 Hillhead Street, and guided tours accommodate small groups to protect the preserved interiors.

The building maintains the exact room sequence and orientation of the original house, ensuring visitors experience identical lighting conditions as the Mackintoshes did.
