Eva Jiricna

by Martin Pawley

Published 15 November 1990
Jiricna, an architect and interior designer, has introduced the world of high fashion to architecture with a series of purist projects that recall Eileen Gray. She has worked in London, for Harrods and Joseph, in France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and the United States. Her restrained but always inventive use of materials and perfectionism has made her a pace-setter, ever more in demand to design shops, restaurants, clubs, furniture and homes.
