Industrial Facility is a London-based studio founded by Sam Hecht and Kim Colin in 2002. Hecht and Colin work for industry in a way that improves everyday design, not by producing 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 product and the user.
They come from two slightly different backgrounds, Sam as a designer and Kim as an architect. They meet in an approach that reflects both a thoughtful consideration of form and a unique (seismographic?) understanding of contemporary life, creating beauty out of utility in the products and furniture they engage themselves in.
Industrial Facility is considered as one of the most progressive studios in furniture and product design and works with Muji, Herman Miller, Emeco, Mattiazzi, Epson and Wästberg.
