Design for the Grand Hall, Glasgow International Exhibition, 1901
The competition, held in 1898, was won by the Glasgow architect James Miller with a considerably more ornate design for a 'bit of Spanish baroque confectionery' (McLaren Young). Like Miller's, Mackintosh's design derives from James Sellars' for the 1888 Glasgow exhibition, but simplified. 'The dome, perhaps a prerequisite for Glasgow exhibitions, remained, but it was presented with severe geometricality, with an Art Nouveau lantern surmounted by a Chinese coolie hat.'
Mackintosh, Charles Rennie

Scotland Street School, North Elevation
Free hand sketch showing the north elevation of Scotland Street School including some architectural descriptions, for example, "scale has been a major design factor in this building for children, windows diminish in height as they rise from the floor, and the wall has been set back to lessen the effect of three stories. Not every room in a building has the same height, each houses a different function and should be designed with that function in mind".
