What does her furniture design tell us about her?

Eileen Gray combined aesthetics with the practical. The geometrically structured mirror Castellar and the “Small Dressing Table”, both designed for her summerhouse E1027, illustrate this. The drawers in the small side box of the Petite Coiffeuse swivel out. Everything is reduced to the essentials, but it all is within easy reach. Her chairs are elegant and minimal.Compare her Bibendum and Transat chairs.
