Furniture Designer |
Eileen Gray
1878 - 1976 |
She is best known as an architect
and designer of furniture and ornamental
objects. Eileen Gray grew up in Ireland
and moved to London in 1898 where she
attended the Slade School of Fine Arts.
After graduating, Eileen Gray moved
to Paris and became an apprentice of
Seizo Sugawara, a reknown Japanese master
of the art of lacquer. As she was working
with him she became exceptionally proficient
in this art and quickly acquired a clientele
of her own.
She then mastered many different styles
and mediums which she used for her unique
designs of furniture. Initially inspired
by the French decorative arts, Eileen
Gray also studied Le Corbusier and the
artists exhibiting in early 1900s Paris,
and her finished work shows little influence
of other movements or designers.
Eileen Gray's style has been described
as 'chameleon-like' in its range and
flexibility. |
