About
Melissa Lee founded her multidisciplinary design firm, Bespoke Only, in 2012. Bringing both her multicultural upbringing, academic background in psychology along with a former career in luxury goods, Lee’s personal and professional experiences enriches and sets apart Bespoke Only’s practice, resulting in work with an exceptionally layered quality and depth. These experiences now shape the way she works with clients at Bespoke Only, which is based out of Brooklyn, New York. Lee’s ability to bridge the realms of the human psyche and the world of design on an emotional level within spaces is evident through her work. Her design ethos lies in a firm curiosity to the human experiences with their environments, while acting as a custodian to the dwelling with a timeless touch. A Parsons School of Design alum, Lee has an affinity for elevating architectural elements and integrates her modernist aesthetic with a quiet yet strong sensibility.
The firm is also known for its distinctive “new romantic” aesthetic, where the exploration of emotion is viewed as the center of design and creating as a way of feeling. As an immigrant and first generation American herself, there’s an earnest sense of belonging and acceptance Lee creates in her work.
Bespoke Only has been featured in Architectural Digest, ELLE Decor, Domino, and more. Bespoke Only was recently named one of Architectural Digest's 2024 "New American Voices."
