About ic! berlin

Founded in 1996 in Berlin-Mitte by Ralph Anderl, Philipp Haffmans, and Harald Gottschling (Anderl became sole managing director after a 2003 split). The signature construction cuts the hinge directly into a flat sheet of spring steel rather than assembling it as a separate part — no screws, welds, or rivets — relying on the steel's own flex for hinge action.
