Lee is the Founder and Interiors Director of The Great Indoors.

The Great Indoors is a Sydney-based, award-winning design consultancy in architecture and interior design for residential, retail, hospitality, and workplaces.

With over 25 years of experience, we bring strategy, creativity, and hands-on expertise to every project, managing everything from design and construction to shopfits and commercial fitouts. Our end-to-end approach ensures every space is seamless, functional, and beautifully designed.

Founded by Lee and Gesa Hopkinson, our team has shaped interiors for global icons such as Selfridges, Harrods, and Nike Town, as well as major Australian brands, including Officeworks and Samsung. We also work closely with Australian-based entrepreneurs to create new brands and interiors from scratch—bringing bold visions to life through thoughtful design and meticulous execution.

The Great Indoors was born from Lee and Gesa’s shared passion for meaningful, well-crafted design. Lee brings bold, visionary creativity, while Gesa’s architectural expertise ensures precision and structure. Together, they shape inviting and inspiring spaces that connect people with places.

The Great Indoors specialises in branded environments, seamlessly merging architecture and identity to create spaces that leave a lasting impression—whether an office, cafe, restaurant, retail destination, or your home.
