The traditional art of marquetry has an enduring appeal,
but it is rarely seen in modern design. New company Marq aims to bring marquetry back into contemporary furniture-making. Its bespoke service enables you to create your own unique designs or pick a pattern from one of its three collections. The aluminium-backed panels can be applied to any item, from kitchen cabinetry and bedroom furniture to wall art screens and gift boxes. Priced from £31 for a border.
