Designer Creator Maker
Ceramics shaped by a designer's eye
Artistic Vision
Lucy Lee creates design-led ceramics that bring together over 25 years of experience in interior design and a lifelong connection to material, texture, and space. Her work explores the point where function meets feeling — where the precision of design merges with the unhurried rhythm of handcraft.
​
Every piece begins with touch. Clay, light, and balance guide the process as forms take shape in a palette drawn from nature. The result is a collection of handmade ceramics that feel timeless and personal: slip-cast vessels, wheel-thrown bowls, and sculptural objects for modern living.
Each piece is made slowly, with intention. Lucy's ceramics carry the same understated confidence as her interiors work; thoughtful, restrained, and deeply tactile. They are designed to be lived with, to hold, and to bring a sense of calm beauty to everyday rituals.

Creative Approach
​Lucy's approach is rooted in the principles that shaped her design career: proportion, material honesty, and emotional connection. She views clay as an architectural medium, one that builds not spaces, but moments. The pieces she creates are informed by years spent shaping interiors for clients who value quality, longevity, and subtle beauty. Her ceramic practice continues that philosophy, distilling it into form and texture rather than walls and light.
​
Working from her Coach House Studio in the UK, Lucy shapes each vessel by hand and explores slip casting techniques that allow her to refine forms with precision.
She’s particularly drawn to the experimental nature of ceramics, creating unrepeatable surface effects through ceramic processes, using chemicals and materials, and exploring their reactions to the firing process, honouring the unpredictable nature of the process. The pace is deliberate, reflecting a belief that design is not about speed or spectacle but about stillness and connection.
​
Her work combines the sensibility of a designer with the soul of a maker: clean lines softened by human touch, contemporary shapes grounded in the natural world, and objects that invite reflection rather than demand attention.
