Sam Hecht and Kim Colin

Sam Hecht and Kim Colin Sam Hecht and Kim Colin founded their studio Industrial Facility in 2002. Their designs reflect both a meticulous attention to detail and a thoughtful consideration of context, creating beauty out of utility in the products, furniture and exhibitions they design. Both Hecht and Colin have been awarded Royal Designers for Industry by the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce. On Their Design Philosophy "Cutting through the extraneous is an approach found at every level of our design process. Not setting out to produce something different but rather, something better, designs that will last and give satisfaction beyond what is often called for by the customer.". Contrasts, and holding them in creative tension, define the work of Sam Hecht and Kim Colin. Their designs reflect both a meticulous attention to an object’s details and a thoughtful consideration of its context. Thus, they measure the success of their designs, “not only in sales or notoriety but also in the contribution to the greater good of the industry (and we hope, the planet)”.
