Eny Lee Parker presents "lumpy and imperfect" homeware at ICFF 2019
Brooklyn designer Eny Lee Parker's latest homeware includes a mirror that looks like "dripping pancake batter" and donut-like lamps.
Parker debuted the designs at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF), an annual showcase that coincides with the NYCxDesign festival.

The 12 piece collection builds upon her handmade ceramic work, called First Hand Collection, which included terracotta jugs as table legs and floor lamps that look like desert cacti.
Parker's new handiwork results in organic forms that mimic a human body's natural curves.

"First Hand Collection Part II is an evolution of the hand-built ceramic series which flirts with familiar gestural forms and curvaceous human body," Parker told Dezeen. "Everything is about what you can do with your body so there are a lot of the shapes are very lumpy and imperfect," she continued.

Parker created the works using a variety of techniques and gave them playful names to describe exactly what they look like.
The Lumpy Breakfast Table, for example, features a curved glass top that slices through a wide and curvy smooth ceramic base. The remaining ceramic piece on top of the glass is indented to place items inside.
