After the rather dark Dining Room this page contains two very light rooms: The Music Room and the Oval Room.
Isn't this room beautiful? The light, the colours, everything. It has to be my favourite room in the house. |

The Oval Room was originally Charles Rennie Mackintosh's Ladies room: an elegant oval, his favourite feminine symbol. This is the room the ladies would have moved to after the dinner was finished and the men were smoking their cigars... | Mackintosh did not design any interiors for this room, so when the house was built the architects developed the furniture and fittings based on other rooms CRM designed. Miss Kate Cranston's living room design was used to design the light fittings and window seats. |
