Eyre de Lanux discovered the modernity and Roaring twen- ties. She rub shoulders with the artistic and literary circles. Man Ray took several pictures of Eyre de Lanux who became a true muse. She took lessons at the Maurice Denis studio where she met Tamara de Lempicka. Then, she became Brancusi’s student and she learnt the direct cutting sculpture ; she also became friend with Pablo Picasso ; and she inspired Louis Aragaon until having a love affair.

Her meeting with the poetess Natalie Clifford Barney and her discovery of the free love pushed her to expand her creative field. First, the writting and then, the interior decoration and furniture creation. In 1926, Eyre de Lanux met Evely Wyld which was associated to Eileen Gray. Gray had already designed nu- merous projects and she was at this time working on her im- portant architecture projects, while designing refined pieces of furniture. In this context, Evelyn Wyld and Eyre de Lanux be- came associates and created their own interior decor society, located in rue de Visconti, the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Près district. Together they took part in many exhibitions as the Sa- lon des Artistes Décorateurs en 1928 and 1929, but also at the exhibition of the Union des Artistes Modernes in 1930.
