Despite a turbulent childhood which saw her father up sticks to Europe to paint, she managed to win a place at the prestigious Slade School of Art in London. The bohemian circles she moved in as a student introduced her to many creative disciplines from painting to architecture. A close friend of Le Corbusier, one of Gray&#8217;s most famous designs is the E-1207 modernist villa in south-eastern France. Apparently jealous of her entreprise, Le Corbusier painted murals over her walls, something Gray deemed as vandalism. Today she remains a highly celebrated Irish furniture designer and architect.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=eileen%20gray&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">Have a wander through Eileen&#8217;s designs here. <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=perriand&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">Charlotte Perriand <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped aligncenter wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\">\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84580\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loungechair.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"84580\" data-link=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=84580\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84581\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/perrian-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"84581\" data-link=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=84581\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">French designer Charlotte Perriand was a leading furniture designer under Le Corbusier. Trained as a seamstress, her move to design was fuelled by a belief that interacting with better design leads to a healthier society. Perriand famously built a bar &#8211; &#8216;Le Bar Sous le Toit&#8217; (Bar Under the Roof) &#8211; in her own room made out of aluminium, glass and chrome. It caused a press sensation and put Perriand on the radar of the design community. When she applied to work in Le Corbusier&#8217;s studio, she was famously rejected by him with the reply, &#8216;We don&#8217;t embroider cushions here.&#8217; A few months later, Le Corbusier rocked up to her show at the Salon d&#8217;Automne and thus Perriand was swiftly hired to work for his studio! One of the most famous pieces she designed for Le Corbusier is the chaise lounge, seen above.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=perriand&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">To see more of Charlotte Perriand&#8217;s designs, click here. <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=florence%20knoll&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">Florence Knoll<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\">\r\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\">\r\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\">\r\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84574\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/CBS-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\r\n<figcaption>Florence Knoll introduced a modern corporate approach to interior design.

She studied under the Bauhaus leader Mies Van Der Rohe and upheld a holistic approach to design, believing that all aspects must come together to have a real impact on those working or living within the environment. She is credited with having developed the modernist corporate look and some of her most famous work can still be found in the interior design &#8211; including furniture &#8211; of New York&#8217;s CBS building, among others. She once corrected a member of the press who reduced her role to that of an &#8216;interior decorator&#8217;, explaining that the only place she decorated was her own home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=florence%20knoll&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">Browse the works of Florence Knoll here. <\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/search?q=ray%20eames&amp;idx=Listing_production&amp;dFR%5Bsold%5D%5B0%5D=false&amp;search=&amp;utm_source=vinteriorblog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=femaledesigners\">Ray Eames <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84582\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/large_swivel-chairs-by-charles-ray-eames-for-herman-miller-1960s-set-of-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped aligncenter wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\">\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84584\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/chair.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"84584\" data-link=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=84584\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84585\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/eames.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"84585\" data-link=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=84585\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-84586\" src=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/eames2.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"84586\" data-link=\"https:\/\/vinterioruk.wpcomstaging.com\/?attachment_id=84586\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Californian artist and designer Ray Eames is known for building the enormously influential design powerhouse Charles &amp; Ray Eames alongside her husband.
