Unveiling Jacques Grange’s Designs

The Mark Hotel – New York

Thanks to the influences of his academic education and the numerous significant figures who have shaped his artistic persona, his unique style, which has been described as not decorated at all, appears to be timeless and everlasting. His rigorous education began at the age of 15, when he enrolled at the École Boulle to study gilding, plaster carving, cabinetmaking, and upholstery, and later at the École Camondo to study interior design.

We can highlight the Paloma Picasso jewelry store in New York City, the Mark Hotel on Madison Avenue, and the Barbizon Hotel as some of Jacques Grange’s most notable works. His most recent projects took him to Lima, Brittany, Paris, and New York. He has become a true icon in the design world thanks to his willingness to create outlandish environments where opposing elements harmoniously balance one another.

One of his most significant encounters was with Yves Saint Laurent, for whom he worked on a variety of projects, including a villa in Marrakech and the Château Gabriel in Normandy, which was themed after Proust and was inspired by “In Search of Lost Time.” “Of all the houses I have decorated, those I have decorated for Yves Saint Laurent are the most important part of my work,” Jacques Grange once said in reference to that specific client. The harmony his signature style achieves between traditional and modern components—not even an element that seems out of place—allows it to exude.
