As a secondary residence, designer Abby Craighton wanted to create an inviting space suitable for both hosting and living. With concrete floors, walls of windows, and a very modern shell, this type of space could lend itself to feeling cold and not welcoming. By paying attention to the warm colors and cozy textures, Craighton gave the spaces the warmth needed without sacrificing the modern style. Blending in some dashes of industrial and masculine flair created the exact outcome the client desired and an outstanding final space!

Give the gift of LIGHT this season at Dwell 🎁✨
Pantone made their pick for color of the year…and like most of the internet we are finding it a little lacking - of COLOR that is!
We’re a little underwhelmed by this year’s Pantone Color of the Year. 😅
So we did what we do best....curated our own!
Vote in the comments: which one would you crown Dwelltone Color of the Year? 🎨⬇️ And let us know, did we pick better than Pantone?
Here are our holiday hours as we celebrate the season with family, friends, and festive cheer. We’ll be back to regular programming (and great design) before you know it. We can’t wait to see you soon!
Not goodbye...just see you later. ✨
One of our favorite humans is off on his next big adventure, and while Dwell won’t quite feel the same, we’re cheering him on every step of the way. So thankful for the many years, laughs, and memories, plus grateful we still get to work together from afar.
Cheers Marcus! We’re so excited for what’s next for you (and happy this isn’t a full goodbye!)
This season, give a gift that fits every style. 🎄✨🎁

New vignette. New favorite.
We just brought a brand-new Rowe sofa to the floor, dressed in one of the most unique fabrics we’ve seen in a while. And spoiler alert = shiny velvet is officially making a comeback. (And you have to feel it!)
This texture-rich finish is one of the trends we’re already calling for 2026, and it adds just the right amount of depth, warmth, and edge to a space.
Stay tuned!! We’re sharing more on this (and other upcoming trends) on our upcoming blog. ✨
Dwell will be closed the morning of Tuesday Dec 16th to get inventory done. We will open back up for normal hours at Noon! See you then!! ✨🥰
