I looked at huge quantities of photos, with a few sentences from the textbook to point me in the right direction, and from that developed an understanding of how Mackintosh&#8217;s furniture was filled with contrasts &#8212; light and dark, feminine and masculine, straight and curved &#8212; and how spare and Japanese it was by contrast with Victorian style.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presentation on Charles Rennie Mackintosh&#8217;s furniture and interior
