Thanks for all the great comments! Congratulations to “willcee” the winner of this book giveaway. Stay tuned for more exciting book giveaways and if you’re interested in reserving a copy of “Mackintosh Furniture” you can pre-order at ShopWoodworking.com.
This week I received advance copies of Michael Crow’s new “Mackintosh Furniture” book. Its a book of techniques and shop drawings to help you recreate 30 of Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s furniture designs.
Often remembered for his architecture and graphics, Mackintosh designed hundreds of pieces of furniture throughout his career. This is the first book of its kind dedicated solely to his furniture. Finally fans of Mackintosh’s work will have access to drawings and details to help recreate some of his most popular furniture.
“Mackintosh Furniture” will be available in December and is currently available for pre-order at ShopWoodworking.com.
I have one advance copy of the book from the printer that I’m giving away. Be the first kid on the block to own a copy of this one! Simply post a comment below and I’ll choose one winner at random. Winner will be announced Monday 10/2/17. Good luck!
Also available from Michael Crow: “Mid-Century Modern Furniture: Shop Drawings & Techniques for Making 29 Projects.”
Here are some supplies and tools we find essential in our everyday work around the shop. We may receive a commission from sales referred by our links; however, we have carefully selected these products for their usefulness and quality.

Choose me, choose me… I build this sory of thing. Thanks for the offer. Hope I’m lucky!! Cheers Megan!
That’s a gorgeous piece. If you stumble across another copy, maybe offer a bundle with Michael’s Arts & Crafts book, or perhaps some of Bob Lang’s books of shop drawings.
+1
Well that sounds nice.
Looks like a great one for my collection!
Looks like a really interesting read!
Yes; thanks!
I remember seeing a fellow on lumberjocks produce a replica table, with inlay stain glass, definitely want to try it one day.
Not too fond of the apples or computers but this kind of Mackintosh suits my taste.
That desk looks great.
Beautiful! Great challenge
Looks great!
If this book is anything like the last I’ll be glad to win a copy or buy one when it’s available.
Gorgeous! Need I say more? You realise I’m talking about the book right?
Utilitarian furniture with style!
Oh Please, Please, Please!
count me in
Yes please.
Looks interesting.
Just as I was thinking of building something new for the house as other projects are finishing up…
Please send with 2 men to lift wood while I work on the designs. 🙂
The books that laud creative designers always have a place on my book shelf.
I would love a book like that, learning to make different furniture is my passion
Yes, Looking forward to the new book!
I would love a book like that.
Interested.
I’m in!
Who can’t use another design book. Especially if is free.
I understand that there can be only one winner.
But speaking of the whole “there can be only one thing” it turns out there were a whole bunch of Highlander movies. There should have been only one (movie that is), and there should have been only none (TV shows), but all in all, if we had to ignore a decade of detritus after the first Highlander, then it was s small price to pay for such lines as “it is THE QUICKENING!”
Additionally, it seems there will be only one winner of this new book, which is fine I suppose. But what method are y’all using to determine these winners? Random Number Generator? Put an Editor in a Closet with a bag of Oreos and however many seconds it takes them to finish them equates to the hypotenuse of the number of the new book owner? Coin flipping, except with fire?
And another thing! Except, I ran out of things to say at least four paragraphs ago. Anyway, please enter me in the roster for the Duel to the Distraction for a nice book of drawings and furniture.
Looking forward to this one!
Love it! Even just the cover project – that is amazing!
One of my teachers once said…. consume design books !!!
In!
i have heard of that fella and seen that sort of furniture before but never knew they were connected. i always figured it was some sort of rebellious american craftsman style. interesting. maybe i’ll win and won’t have to buy the book
I have Michael Crow’s book on “Building Arts and Crafts Furniture”, Michael does a great job presenting detailed and straight forward plans. I look forward to flipping through this new book.
Yes please
I had never heard of Mackintosh furniture until seeing the cover of this book. I could put this book to great use.
I would like to have this.
I’m in! I would like to make some Mackintosh furniture.
I went to a Macintosh exhibit at a museum in LA in 1998. It was awesome.
