David Collins’s design and aesthetic made a huge impact and it is no exaggeration to say that the restaurant and hotel design revolution of the last two decades, 1990 – 2010, would not have been the same without him – a style redolent with classic charm and decadence infused with a modern aesthetic and lightened by a great sense of fun.

The David Collins Foundation was created in 2016 to commemorate David Collins, his work, his passion for the arts, his love or beauty and his ever-curious mindset for all things innovative and new.
