About

The Lighthouse is the renamed conversion of the former offices of the Glasgow Herald newspaper. Completed in 1895, it was designed by the architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The Lighthouse was Scotland's Centre for Design and Architecture.

The Lighthouse

It was opened as part of Glasgow's status as the UK City of Architecture and Design in 1999 and closed due to the Covid pandemic in 2020. The centre's vision was to develop the links between design, architecture, and the creative industries, seeing these as interconnected social, educational, economic and cultural issues of concern to everyone.
