Since establishing Industrial Facility in London in 2002, Sam Hecht and Kim Colin have worked together to form one of the most progressive studios in industrial design. With a continuous roster of pioneering clients, including Muji, Herman Miller, Emeco, Novo Nordisk, Mattiazzi, Issey Miyake and Wästberg, they are highly regarded for both their philosophical and pragmatic approach to design that continues to achieve lasting relevance . The studio's work covers everything from furniture, lighting and kitchen equipment, to digital and electronic products, exhibitions and special commissions.
"Our work reflects both a thoughtful consideration of form and a unique understanding of contemporary life, creating beauty out of utility in the products, furniture and exhibitions we design".
Both Hecht (from London) and Colin (from Los Angeles) are Royal Designers for Industry and Fellows of the Royal Society of Arts, honours that recognize sustained design excellence, work of aesthetic value and of significant benefit to society. Their work is held in permanent collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Art Institute of Chicago; Centre Pompidou, Paris; Victoria and Albert Museum and the Design Museum, both in London.
Industrial Facility's desire is to work with industry in a way that improves the things we live with. Not setting out to produce something different but rather something better, they aim to design things that will last, be effective and give satisfaction often beyond what is called for by the project.
The studio has two branches; Industrial Facility that works on projects intended for production (An Incorporated Company since 2015); and Future Facility that collaborates with clients on speculative and networked products; an online retail portal Retail Facility also makes available works produced by the studio.
