JUDiTH+ROLFE was founded by Daphne Judith Lee in 2016. Originally from Singapore, Daphne moved to New York in 1997 to study architecture at Cornell University, where she earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree. She then spent over a decade working as an architect in New York City. Following a move to MinneapolisβSaint Paul, she unexpectedly discovered her passion for paper crafting, leading to the launch of her studio. JUDiTH+ROLFE is now based near Richmond, Virginia.
Daphne was selected to participate in the inaugural Anthropologie x Nest Fellowship Program in 2025. She is a proud member of the Paper Artist Collective, American Craft Council, Nest Artisan Guild, and International Association of Hand Papermakers and Paper Artists (IAPMA).
We are proud to partner with Nest to connect the people, artistry, and impact of handcraft to create a more equitable and beautiful world.
