About Us
The Company:
Dwell Home Furnishings was founded by Christiane Lemieux in 1999 in an effort to bring modern textile design to the world of home. Christiane was soon joined by Jennifer Chused as Partner and Vice President of Sales and Merchandising, and later by Christiane's husband, Joshua Young, as President and CEO. The company quickly established itself as a leader and innovator in the bedding market - and expanded to a fuller offering of home furnishings products, including table, baby, and junior. With a unique sense of color, an unwavering commitment to quality, and always remaining a step ahead in design, DwellStudio continues to create its own distinctive interpretation of home furnishings design.
In November 2007, Dwell launched DwellStudio, a name that combines all the existing Dwell, Dwellbaby, Dwellkids and Dwelltable lines into a cohesive brand. The name DwellStudio embodies how the company has evolved since inception into a home furnishings brand with roots in modern print and pattern. DwellStudio is the destination for the well designed, decorative minimal home.
