Eclipse Mirror

Kin & Company, the Brooklyn-based design and fabrication studio founded by cousins Joseph Vidich and Kira de Paola, creates contemporary metal furniture that emphasizes bold, expressive forms paired with intriguing details and rich materials—translucent marble juxtaposed with deep black patina, a delicate inlay, a precarious balance as floor meets furniture—each moment embracing the beauty of the unexpected. The partners carry their familial connection into a creative process rooted in the core principles of collaboration and exploration. Their passion for creating sophisticated, high-quality furniture began with their mutual backgrounds in fine art and was nurtured through more than 30 years of combined experience working in all facets of the design industry, including architecture and interior design. Their workflow emphasizes an integrated design and fabrication process where the act of making becomes a generative part of the design process. They cultivate in-depth knowledge of materials and the techniques used to shape those materials, attending to the precision of every detail.
