Design for The Hill House, Helensburgh, perspective from south-west
Design for Walter Blackie. 'When in 1902, Walter W Blackie, the publisher, decided to have a new house built on a site he had acquired overlooking the Firth of Clyde, he asked Talwin Morris, the art manager of his firm, for advice in the choice of an architect. Morris had no hesitation in recommending Mackintosh and when Blackie met him they found themselves very much in sympathy with each other. This happy relationship between clients and architect resulted in the largest and perhaps finest example of Mackintosh's executed domestic architecture.' (McLaren Young). The house survives in good condition and still containing much of the furniture which Mackintosh designed for it. The plan is similar to his design for Haus Eines Kunstfreundes, and the schemes for decoration and furnishings throughout the house were executed according to his designs.

Designed for the Willow Tea Rooms, Glasgow. 'A very sturdy but not particularly comfortable chair, used in the ground floor saloons, the Gallery and the Smoking room... Their boxy shape contrasts with the taller and more open ladder-backs arranged alongside them in the layout of furniture which Mackintosh devised.' (Roger Billcliffe). Reupholstered in blue horsehair 1984 (the original upholstery on these and the Willow settle was a green and gold striped horsehair). This item was assessed for conversation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access project (2006-2010), and then again in 2018 following the fire in the Mackintosh Building in June 2018.

Round table for Willow Tea Rooms
This item was lost in the fire in The Mackintosh Building at The Glasgow School of Art on 23rd May 2014. This item was assessed for conservation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access Project (2006-2010).
Designed for the Billiards Room, Willow Tea Rooms, Glasgow. This table does not appear in contemporary photographs of the Tea Rooms. It is cruder in construction and more robust than the other round table, MC/F/46, and so has affinities with the heavier looking furniture designed for the Billiards Rooms. The square cut-outs on the legs echo the similar arrangements of squares on the panel dividing the fitted seating in the Billiards Room. (Roger Billcliffe).

Twelve chairs reupholstered in brown horsehair 1984. One chair on loan from Glasgow University, returned 1984.

Designed for Miss Cranston's home at Hous'hill, Nitshill, Glasgow. A white table was originally placed at the window of the music room in Hous'hill. It was purchased at the 1933 exhibition and loaned to the GSA by the same family who purchased half the White Bedroom suite. In 1920 (after the death of her husband) Miss Cranston sold the property with its furniture to Mr Gamble, who took much of the furniture with him when he left. In 1927 the house was leased to John Henderson, and in 1934 extensively damaged by fire and purchased by Glasgow Corporation for demolition; all the interior fittings were destroyed. It is not known where the black table was originally used in the house, or even if it indeed came from Hous'hill.

Design for Miss Rowat. The job books indicate that this commission was carried out, but no photographs exist to indicate how closely the executed work followed this design. A completely new motif is introduced with the wavy apron below the top shelf which provides relief to an otherwise rigidly geometrical design.
