ABOUT

Dwell not only in spaces, but in memories.

Dwelling Studio is a boutique residential interior design studio based in Melbourne, driven to create homes as unique as the people who live in them. Our designs are sophisticated, practical and authentically tailored, reflecting who you are and how you live.

What We Do

                   


We love designing spaces that feel like home; welcoming, comfortable, and just right for you. We work closely with you to establish a vision for your project, understanding the details of what you like and how you live to set the design brief. 


We design and document how your space will look, feel and function, collaborating with registered Architects and Drafters to advise on the structural details and council requirements for your project. Our highly detailed documentation captures every thoughtfully considered design element, leaving no details to question.


Combining our design documentation with the Architect's construction drawings, you will have a clear set of instructions ready for your project to be brought to life.

Our Aim

                   


At Dwelling Studio, our projects are designed to be more than beautiful and practical, they’re made to be lived-in, loved, and remembered. With thoughtful attention to detail, we aim to create spaces that bring comfort and delight, to truly improve your everyday life. Our hope is that every project offers an invitation to dwell, to settle to what feels like a warm hug at the end of the day; a space that feels like home.
