The renovation of Eileen Gray’s E-1027 house features in today’s Dezeen Weekly newsletter
The latest edition of our Dezeen Weekly newsletter features a renovation of Eileen Gray’s E-1027 modernist house in southern France.
The seminal modern home recently reopened following a five-year renovation by The Association Cap Moderne, which returned it to the state it was in when it was completed in 1929 by Gray.
Readers are excited to take a closer look, with one commenting: “Would love to see it in this restored state”.

Other stories in this week’s newsletter include a round-up of home libraries, a floating offshore wind power generator and details of our Redesign the World competition, which closes in just two weeks.
