Although relatively new on the design scene, eva marguerre and marcel besau can already look back on significant career milestones, with numerous nominations for international design awards and won prices such as the German Design Award newcomer finalist 2014 and many appearances at prestigious exhibitions and fairs in Germany and abroad.
