Honeyman and Keppie
Honeyman and Keppie was a major architectural firm based in
Charles Rennie MacKintosh, who started as a draughtsman in April 1889[1]
and rose to partner level. The creation of the new Honeyman, Keppie and MacKintosh marked the next phase in the evolution of the practice which as Honeyman and Keppie existed from 1888 to 1904.
Whilst often viewed independently, Mackintosh did much of his most notable work while employed in the firm.
Other notable employees include
James Herbert MacNair who began as an apprentice in the firm in 1894, and David Forbes Smith
.
The majority of their work is in Glasgow but they received several church commissions in other towns and had connections to several small towns and villages such as Skelmorlie, Kilmacolm, and Kirkintilloch, leaving behind disproportionate representation in those towns.
