The GSA Mackintosh Building Designed in 1896 by a young Charles Rennie Mackintosh, completed in 1909 and 100 years later, still fulfilling its original purpose as a functioning art school, the Mackintosh building is truly unique to the Mackintosh legacy. An iconic building, full of surprises and contradictions typical of Mackintosh’s work; ascetic yet graceful, dark yet bright, imitative yet so thoroughly modern, The Glasgow School of Art remains one of the world’s finest examples of Arts and Crafts architecture of the fin-de-siècle.
