Sam Hecht and Kim Colin created their office Industrial Facility to apply a thoughtful consideration of form with a unique understanding of contemporary life, creating beauty out of utility in the products, furniture and exhibitions they design. Hecht, from London, trained as an industrial designer, while Colin, from Los Angeles, trained as an architect. With a roster of pioneering clients, including Muji and Herman Miller, they are regarded for their philosophical and pragmatic approach. They are both elected Royal Designers, an honour that recognises sustained design excellence with significant benefit to society. Works are held in most permanent collections, including the MoMA, NY; Centre Pompidou, Paris; and the V&A, London.
