CR Mackintosh - bookcases
The following bookcase designs are very satisfying offering elegant design options for your
new bookcase, as they look classic Mackintosh in style. The tall vertical rails were based
on a Mackintosh design, and the decorative squares & lines are very much as he did them. The
visually strong ornate vertical rails really make these pieces with the various square shapes
and colours. We've shown a range of bookcase options in typical Mackintosh colours. You can
go from a single bay bookcase to a complete library with this style if you want. We also used
this design to produce a range of walk-in closets, see the bedroom section for these.
You can take the look further if you are remodelling your room, and match the bookcase's plinth
& top rails with matching height skirting baseboard and picture rails, another typical Mack
design element, creating strong horizontal lines around the room. We can also include cupboards
or chests of drawers for the bookcases. Also, the sizes of the bookcases themselves can be
increased or decreased as required. Although Mack has an instantly recognised look, he designed
in a range of styles and palette of finishes, which we can offer.
The backs of the bookcases can be fitted with matching back panels or can be left open. They can
be supplied freestanding or to be built-in, primed or finished. Bear in mind it is not always
practical to deliver completely assembled bookcases, due to access problems and the weight - they
can be supplied in sections forassembly in the room. Made to order. We don't discuss sizes or
pricing until we've agreed a design and spec with a customer.

The above design shows how we can extend the look of the bookcase range to a whole room.
Mack liked to create visual 'panels' in his interiors, it broke up blank walls and gave a
sense of rhythm to the room and allowed for decorative details to be introduced. This
dining room shows the walls 'panelled' with the same verticals as the bookcases, and even
used for other pieces of furniture. Even the room door has been given the same styling.
