Eileen Gray: A House Under the Sun

Zosia Dzierzawska’s graphic novel from Nobrow traces the life and work of visionary architect and designer Eileen Gray, focusing on the creation of her modernist masterpiece, E.1027, on the French Riviera. Published as a single, self-contained volume in 2019, it explores the intersection of Gray’s fiercely independent vision with the personal and professional challenges she faced in a male-dominated field. Dzierzawska’s elegant, atmospheric art brings both the coastal landscape and Gray’s meticulous design philosophy to vivid life. This is a quietly essential portrait of a neglected creative genius, reclaiming her place in design history.
