The story of Zero One One begins in 2002, a stone's throw from the Louvre in Paris. It was first created as a shop offering a selection of exclusive and original items for the home and tableware. Always on the lookout for new products, the founders of Zero One One met Sandy Chilewich in New York the following year. The collection was an immediate success in the store.

Chilewich was a young company looking to expand internationally, and it’s only natural that Zero One One offered to help establish it in Europe. The adventure began in 2004 with a first exhibition at the Salon Maison et Objet in Paris. A few months later, the collection was presented at the Ambiente trade fair in Franckfort. Many exhibitions followed throughout Europe.

Chilewich is now distributed in the most prestigious points of sale: renowned department stores, concept stores, furniture stores, etc. The brand is also found in hotels and restaurants which have chosen these products for their sturdiness, ease of use and their inventive design.

Fast forward to 2023, and Zero One One extended its collaborative efforts, this time with Heller.

Established in 1971, Heller boasts a rich history of collaboration with some of the globe's foremost designers. Their products, renowned for their beauty and timelessness, have graced a myriad of spaces, from museums and offices to restaurants and homes.

Heller's inaugural offering, a line of stacking dinnerware conceived by Massimo Vignelli, earned the prestigious Compasso d'Oro award in Italy and secured a place in the MOMA permanent design collection in New York.

The distribution hub nestled in the Paris region ensures swift delivery across the European continent.
