The gallery and shop housed in 80 Derngate adjoins the Mackintosh remodelled Northampton home for Wenman Joseph Bassett-Lowke originally completed 1916-17 and restored in 2003. Designed by international architects, John McAslan+Partners, the visitor centre and exhibition space fitted with custom designed furniture by Isis Concepts, has galleries linked by a new staircase that wraps around a 4-storey glass cabinet that holds a series of exhibits relating to both Mackintosh and Bassett-Lowke.
