New research and exhibition takes the public inside Mackintosh’s architecture
A new exhibition opening at the Hunterian Art Gallery this Friday (18 July) will offer new insights into the architectural work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The opening of the exhibition coincides with the culmination of a four-year research project, led by experts at the University of Glasgow. The 'Mackintosh Architecture: Context, Making and Meaning' project is the largest study of Mackintosh's architectural works ever undertaken and has led to a revaluation of this remarkably under-researched area of Mackintosh's output.

Seeds to skyscrapers
Wood is one of the oldest building materials but its use is limited by its properties. With new funding, researchers aim to stretch these properties to an unprecedented degree, creating the means to build a skyscraper out of plants. Although the techniques to manipulate manufactured materials are better understood, the potential to generate materials with diverse properties based on plants may be far greater Michael Ramage It's not often that research begins with designing a wooden 70-storey office building that falls over, at least on paper.
