ARTICLE: Object Lesson – The Story Behind Eileen Gray’s Iconic Transatlantique Design by Hannah Martin, Architectural Digest, February 2020

SUMMARY: I enjoyed reading this page-long article on the subject of Eileen Gray and her Transatlantique Chair. Apparently, the chair’s name was entirely too long because it is now commonly known as the Transat. But then again we all love to create nicknames, so why not for this? The Transat was inspired by ocean travel. Gray made only 12 of these chairs herself, and they are now a precious commodity.  One of these chairs was recently sold for $1.5 MILLION!  Reproductions are going for approximately $3,500.00 minimum. If you don’t believe me, look it up. Complete jaw drop. Now I really want to design furniture. Who’s with me?

EXTRA CREDIT: This article actually made me want to look a little bit more into the life of this Irish Architect and Furniture Designer.  If you are curious about what I found out, read about it here: Top 5 Interesting Facts to Know About Eileen Gray.
