Eileen Gray E-1027 – The side table as an icon of modern interior design
A table that made design history
Eileen Gray 's E-1027 side table is considered one of the most radical yet elegant pieces of furniture from the modern era. Designed in the late 1920s, it continues to represent functional design, architectural thinking, and a new freedom in living.
In contrast to the representative furniture of his time, Eileen Gray developed an object that adapts flexibly to the person – not the other way around.

Functionality as a design principle
A key feature of the E-1027 table is its height-adjustable tabletop , which can be effortlessly adapted to a sofa, armchair, or bed. The chrome-plated tubular steel frame lends the table both lightness and stability, while the clean geometry clearly reflects its functional design.
The E-1027 is not a decorative accessory, but a precisely designed piece of furniture for everyday use.
Eileen Gray and Modernity
Eileen Gray is one of the most important designers of the 20th century. Her work uniquely combines architecture, furniture design, and craftsmanship. With the E-1027 table, she created an object that is not only formally compelling but also set new social standards.
The table was originally designed for the eponymous house E-1027 on the Côte d'Azur – a manifesto of modern living culture.
