The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first floor and the second floor are formed in this order on a substrate. 3. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the driving circuit section includes a plurality of circuit elements, and wherein the plurality of circuit elements are disposed in a distribution manner in the first floor. 4. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first floor and the second floor include light transmissive portions which communicate with each other in a laminate direction. 5. The display device according to claim 4 , wherein the driving circuit section includes a plurality of circuit elements, wherein the plurality of circuit elements are disposed in a distribution manner in the first floor, and wherein the light transmissive portions are formed in gaps between the plurality of circuit elements. 6. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the driving circuit section includes a plurality of circuit elements, and wherein the plurality of circuit elements are provided in a selective first region of the first floor. 7. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein a wiring layer is formed in another selective second region of the first floor. 8. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein a functional element is formed in another selective second region of the first floor. 9. The display device according to claim 6 , wherein the pixel section has a rectangular shape in a plan view, and wherein the selective first region of the first floor is a region corresponding to at least one side of the rectangular shape. 10. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the driving circuit section further includes a second transistor, and wherein the at least one transistor of the pixel section and the second transistor of the driving circuit section are formed to overlap each other in a plan view. 11. The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the pixel section includes a plurality of pixel transistors, and wherein one of the plurality of pixel transistors is formed in the first floor. 12. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein the pixel section includes a write transistor and a driving transistor as the pixel transistors, and wherein the write transistor is formed in the first floor, and the driving transistor is formed in the second floor. 13. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein an electrode of the display element is also used as a source/drain electrode of the driving transistor. 14. The display device according to claim 2 , wherein the first floor further includes a second transistor that contains low temperature polysilicon, and wherein the at least one transistor contains an oxide semiconductor. 15. The display device according to claim 2 , wherein the first floor further includes a second transistor, and wherein the at least one transistor and the second transistor contain an oxide semiconductor. 16.
