Industrial Zombie
Founded by Adam Kalkin and Matthew Quilty, IZ is a fully integrated Design, Engineering and Manufacturing Company. We have four divisions: Residential, Commercial, Mechanized (architecture that moves), and Marquis. We have projects in the United States, France, Italy, Australia and Africa. Our work has been featured in the Museum of Modern Art, Architectural Digest, The New York Times, Vogue, Dwell and profiled on CNN.
With our team’s unique blend of talents, we are able to take each project from conception to fruition, insuring the highest quality throughout the process. With manufacturing facilities in the Eastern United States, the Western United States and England, we are able to work closely with our clients in every phase to ensure their vision is met and their needs realized.
Why Zombie?
A zombie is defined as “A corpse given life by a supernatural force.” Much like those supernatural forces that awaken new life in dead bodies, we use discarded industrial materials, re-imagining them for a higher purpose, thereby giving them new life. This form of up-cycling results in unusual, surprising structures, still achieving the highest design aesthetic while reducing industrial material waste.
