Hill House in Helensburgh , Scotland is one of Charles Rennie Mackintosh's most famous works, probably second only to Glasgow School Of Art . It was designed and built for the publisher Walter Blackie in 1902 – 1904 . In addition to the house its self, Mackintosh also designed most of the interior rooms, furniture and other fixings. Mackintosh's attention to detail even extended to prescribing the colour of cut flowers that Blackie's might place on a table in the living room, so as not to clash with the rest of the decor. In 1982 the house was donated to the National Trust For Scotland who continue to maintain it and manage visitors. EXTERNAL LINKS
