For over 50 years, Heller has provided leading designers with a platform to exploit new technologies in the design of cutting-edge products and research into innovative manufacturing processes.

 

Founded in 1971 in New York, the company launched its first product, a line of stackable tableware designed by Massimo Vignelli. Awarded a Compasso d'Oro in Italy, MAX is now part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The collection, reissued in 2023, is now available once more.

​

In 1998, Heller marked the beginning of its foray into the world of furniture with a real masterstroke: The Bellini Chair, a creation by Mario Bellini, which was also awarded the prestigious Compasso d'Oro in 2001. Since then, Heller's success has been built on fruitful partnerships with renowned designers such as Massimo & Lella Vignelli, Philippe Starck, Vico Magistretti, William Sawaya, Frank Gehry and Studio 65.

​

And that's just the beginning! In its quest for innovation and style, Heller also collaborates with young talent, the designers of tomorrow who are destined to redefine the design landscape. One such collaboration is SWELL, the fruit of a partnership begun in 2022 with the talented Anna Dawson.
