Eric Gizard

Nationality
France
Occupation
Interior architect

Eric Gizard draws his inspiration and his references from contemporary Decorative Arts.

Passionate about his time without denying the past, he works on very diverse subjects by providing very personal solutions, always marked with an original style.

Assertive contrasts, telescoping in the use of materials and colors, work on "chiaroscuro", a skillful mix of tradition and modernity are his identity traits.

An attentive explorer of the styles of the world, his field of action leads him to work on a wide variety of projects: apartments and ready-to-wear boutiques in Japan, a pastry shop in Korea, a Jean Patou boutique in Paris, a private house in London, the commercial environment of the Asian cosmetics brand SK-II in Asia, hotel projects in Europe or the Lounges and cabin harmonies of Air France planes around the world.

This strong taste for encounters and eclecticism led him to develop an activity in design by creating simple shapes, responding to contemporary principles of lightness, fluidity, and readability. In parallel with the creation of furniture lines for First Time, he is currently working on the creation of tableware for Hermès, lighting and tableware for the Cristalleries Saint-Louis.

He is the creative mind behind the Borely wall lamp, edited by DCW.
