Jim Eyre

Jim Eyre originally trained as an interior architect and ended up as a creative director at Legas Delaney. Along the way he has been a business owner, a designer with Barber Osgerby, a film maker represented by Partizan and a creative designer for Sir Paul Smith. Having worked in every medium imaginable from formed plywood, to photography, film and when appropriate even balloons, Jim believes the idea should always come first, then be executed in the appropriate media. Eyre has created a number of iconic pieces of work. His loop table, created while at Barber Osgerby, has permanent residency in both MoMA and the V&A. His Balloon Head window display for Paul Smith, is still used globally to open new stores all around the world and inspired the front cover of Sir Paul Smith’s latest book.
