Glass Tower of Scotland Street School

After attending a meeting at Scotland Street School today, I took a few photos of this architectural gem.

The School was designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, between 1903-6 to provide schooling for 1250 children. It was Mackintosh's last major commission in Glasgow showing evidence of the genius of the mature architect. Impressive leaded glass towers, magnificent tiled entrance hall, unique stonework and mastery of the interplay of light and space.

The stairwells are amazing, the sheer drama that Mackintosh has created here is a joy to the eye.
