This is SCIN - no ordinary Materials Library. We are an Independent, Connected, Voice of Authority.
There is no such thing as ordinary nor the need for round pegs to fit in round holes, however there is need for solutions. Materials play an important role in all aspects of Design and we tell their stories.
We are a materials Sourcing and Advisory Company. We find new materials and show them to Architects, Designers and Specifiers in an inspirational and informative way.
Each Gallery both Permanent and Mobile is designed to present Curated Global Materials from the Individual original thinker to the laboratories and think tanks of some of the largest research establishments. We have anything from the common brick (well almost) to the meta material grown by scientists. Our Material Collections and Research touches on the future, debates the truly sustainable and welcomes the beautiful.
Our Materials have no commercial boundaries. Our Doors welcome all those with a curiosity and need to find something Materially different. And we love to learn from our visitors too.
The SCIN Gallery is also a premium Event Venue, available to be hired for various events ranging from exhibition and parties to conferences and seminars.
RSVP eve@scin.co.uk for more details for hiring this beautiful space in the creative Heart of London.

Established in 2011
SCIN was created by designers Annabelle Filer and Graham Cox, both of whom trained as Architects. The material insight they gained through their experience in Design lead them to focus purely on material research. Four years ago they decided to share their material information and SCIN was launched.
