About Marc Wood Bespoke Joinery

Beautiful Handmade Wooden Furniture

Furniture, picture frame and mirrors using traditional dovetail joint techniques, handmade from natural wood by Marc Wood Joinery in Somerset UK

We are Marc Wood Bespoke Joinery and from our farmhouse workshop in rural Somerset, we design and handcraft beautiful modern rustic furniture, mirrors, and picture frames from sustainable natural wood.

We offer in-house designs and custom-made furniture for those who want creative design with traditional craftsmanship using high-quality natural materials.

Our Story

Our small business started 8 years ago when designer-maker Marc studied joinery technique at college after years of enjoyable home woodworking projects, including our own VW camper van interior.

Enjoying our life in Somerset UK at Marc Wood Joinery, specialists in handmade modern rustic furniture.

Following his training Marc was able to put his creative furniture designs into practice using reclaimed and sustainable natural wood; together with wife Rachel and super-cute pet assistant Marv they run Marc Wood Bespoke Joinery in Somerset, where everything continues to be handmade by Marc and our team of 6 talented local staff.

Inspired by the West-Country

Marc has an imaginative art and design background, and our authentic modern-rustic furniture designs are inspired by a fusion of styles.

At Marc Wood Joinery we are inspired by the design of our Somerset farmhouses workshop.

From the mellow resonance of a traditional Somerset farmhouse to modernist curves, and a contemporary industrial look.

At Marc Wood Joinery UK we handcraft modern rustic furniture such as cabinets, mirrors, frames and inbuilt storage

We specialise in a variety of wooden bathroom and kitchen cabinets, chunky wall mirrors, picture frames and inbuilt or free-standing storage concepts, for use throughout your home.

Sustainability & Reducing Waste

We love our natural environment and living in the West-Country we are fortunate to have wild landscapes and award winning clean beaches on our doorstop.

We have made a commitment to running our small business with sustainability in mind, minimising waste and re-using discarded materials.

We do our best to source supplies locally and use recycled packaging whenever possible; we are focused on further reducing our use of plastics and energy consumption.

At Marc Wood Joinery UK we are working towards sustainability and reducing our waste

Our long-term plan is to install equipment to enable renewable energy at home and at our farmhouse workshop.

Our Favourite Dovetail Joint

The essence of our design can be seen in our use of the angular ‘Dovetail’ joint which has become our signature.

At Marc Wood Joinery UK we use traditional artisan techniques like dovetail joints and subtle curves for our modern rustic furniture.

We apply this classic joinery method for the dual benefits of dependable construction and as an accentuated yet simple decorative feature.

Among the more contemporary characteristics of our handcrafted furniture designs are the subtle shaped corners of our cabinets and storage units, which often combine with our simple ‘hidden’ integrated wooden handles for a fluid appearance (round wooden or cast-iron handles are also available)

Bespoke & Inbuilt Options

We are always happy to create something bespoke and we can adapt our designs to include alternative features such as hinges, handles, shelf spacings etc.

Life in Somerset

Our West-Country location is intrinsic to our lifestyle and provides much design inspiration for Marc.

Our characterful rural workshop is set within a courtyard of 19th Century farm buildings which are shared among a lively local artisan community. 

The multitude of natural places and wildlife which we encounter in Somerset varies from woodland, moorland, and coastal sites with both Exmoor and Lyme Regis close by.

Our local town of Ilminster takes its name from the River Ile and the beautiful Medieval Minster church of St Mary’s built in distinctive mellow Hamstone.

There is an enthusiastic artistic community in the town with the long established Meeting House arts centre and head offices of fashion designer Alice Temperley set at either end of the colonnaded market square.

Visit us at the Ilminster Emporium

We have a shop space in the Emporium which is located just opposite the Minster Church on Silver Street.
