The so-called " Glasgow " style was exhibited in Europe and influenced the Viennese Art Nouveau movement known as Sezessionstil ( in English, the Vienna Secession ) around 1900.

His House for an Art Lover was finally built in Glasgow's Bellahouston Park in 1996, and the University of Glasgow ( which owns the majority of his watercolour work ) rebuilt the interiors of a terraced house Mackintosh had designed, and furnished it with his and Margaret's work ( it is part of the University's Hunterian Museum ).

In conjunction with that exhibit, there were lectures and a symposium by major scholars, including Pamela Robertson of the Hunterian Art Gallery, Glasgow art gallery owner Roger Billcliffe, and architect J. Stewart Johnson, and screening of documentary films about Mackintosh.
