Our hearty congratulations go to furniture designer Mark Wilkinson who was awarded an OBE in the New Year's honours list.

Mark's creativity has had a huge impact on kitchen design in particular and we have been lucky enough to feature many of his stunning rooms in Homes & Gardens over the years. In addition to his innate creativity, Mark is also being recognised for the time, commitment and passion he invests in training schemes to pass on his fine skills and his work for charities including Dyslexia Action.
