# Large-Scaled Lily Pads Jaemee Studio Designed an Interactive Installation That Floats on a Pond By Francesca Mercurio | Published 2021-08-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaemee-studio References: [designboom](https://www.designboom.com/design/the-lily-project-jaemee-studio-usa-08-18-2021/) & [jaemeestudio](https://www.jaemeestudio.com/) Jaemee Studio has completed a unique interactive design in East Haddam, Connecticut. Titled the Lily Project, this unique design invites park visitors to [interact with nature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playful-sculptures) by laying and sitting on [large-sized lily pads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-water-lily) made of insulation foams. During Jaemee Studio's artist residency at the I-Park Foundation, they designed 13 lily pads that all float in a pond. The lily pads all vary in diameter - between 30 cm and up to two meters - which emulates the similar variation of scale found in real lily pads. Visitors are invited to enjoy nature through the design while equally immersing themselves in a live art experience. Jaemee Studio is often inspired by everyday objects and uses those inspirations to create playful designs.
