Mackintosh’s relationship with his wife Margaret was vital to the development of his style, especially in their shared personal spaces. The two collaborated on light, unified interiors, designing stylized furniture with elongated curving forms. Pieces like the bed and mirror pictured here gave new dimensions to familiar objects through a distinct sensitivity to gender and sexuality. Photo courtesy The Hunterian, University of Glasgow.
