When Mark Wilkinson turned his attention to designing furniture for children's bedrooms he reached a conclusion (one of many) that, given the choice, discerning parents would rather buy furniture which displays the indelible charm of imaginative design than the (all too common) kind which relies on surface embellishment.

Also, if children are to grow up learning about true values in life then surrounding them with qualities of craftsmanship is desirable provided that durability is foremost in the design concept and the making.

The furniture designs that are depicted in this section were given the ultimate test with Mark's own children, Gregory and Victoria . The outcome is utterly practical, beautifully made furniture that will give your children happiness - and their children after them.
