Mackintosh-style Occasional Table Woodworking Plan

This table is an interpretation of one Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed for Hill House in Helensburgh, Scotland, ca. 1904. Though not as well known in America as Stickley or Roycroft, Mackintosh (1868-1928) was an important figure in the European Arts & Crafts movement. His work encompassed both architecture and furniture. The through-mortises and crisp, square cutouts may look diffiult, but they really are quite easy. The secret to success is in a careful glue-up.
