Charles Rennie Mackintosh

For our next, and final project, of the semester I will get to design and build my own chair! While I am a little nervous about using power tools, I really want to embrace this experience because this will most likely be the only chair I will design and make. Our first assignment for this project was to find a chair that will serve as our inspiration. I have chosen the Hill House Chair by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. I learned about Mackintosh during my History and Philosophy of Design class, and fell in love with his work. I will include screen shots of my presentation on this chair. Also,  here is a link to a wonderful video about Mackintosh, and his connection with Glasglow. While this does not specifically connect with the Hill House Chair it is short, and definately worth watching.
