Book tickets

Set against the backdrop of the 1930s Parisian art world and the sunlit Riviera, E.1027 – Eileen Gray and the House by the Sea is a visually striking hybrid documentary that explores the visionary work of Irish designer and architect Eileen Gray. When Gray builds her dream home, E.1027, as both a personal refuge and an architectural masterpiece, it draws the obsessive attention of famed architect Le Corbusier—sparking a quiet battle over authorship, legacy, and creative ownership. Interweaving art, architecture, and emotional tension, the film reclaims Gray’s rightful place in modernist history, long overshadowed by her male peers.
