ALEXANDER VON EIKH
"I envision each piece as an intricate part of the entire space and work with existing or future decorating to fuse the personality, style and sensitivity of the client. The success of this approach has often led my clients from wanting just one of my creations to many more."
Alexander von Eikh uses various materials and finishes and he has a technical support team of the highest standard. He works every aspect of his creations to the most perfect excess in its detail.
"I think we want to be close to nature and beauty. Those are my major influences. That is why my creations maintain their allure beyond trends and styles. You can find them inside interiors that have drastically different influences. Objects in our homes enhance the architecture and space. I think of jewelry. You wear jewelry not to compensate, but to define your personal style." Each piece defines one's personal style. Beautiful in its individuality, and remarkably versatile, each can easily translate into surroundings of any style.
"High design is not about expensive stuff our friends may admire. It is aesthetics of every day life, the art of living that has ability to influence and inspire."
Alexander von Eikh was born in Moscow, Russia. He went to high school in Paris and Rome. The Italian idea that aesthetics is a part of everyday life and the recognition of design as a form of enlightenment had a profound influence. His relationship with fine art was not separate from design and architecture but one in all. He attended Cooper Union and Parsons School of Design. He has been published multiple times in Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, Gallerie, Robb Report, Veranda, and House & Garden among other publications. He lives and works in New York.
