Modern World
Meet the Dwell 24—our yearly lineup of the best emerging designers in the world. From lamps inspired by cacti to a chandelier composed of ceramic phalluses, this bumper crop of creators is setting the scene for the design of tomorrow.
The 25 Most Important Homes Of The Past 25 Years
These are the houses that defined home design.
Lookie-Loos
Whether you’re a superfan, an entrepreneur, or not quite sure what you’re getting yourself into, the experience of owning a “famous” house is hard to put a price tag on.
Stepping Into History
House museums offer the chance to see how design luminaries around the world really lived. We picked some of our favorites for the top of your travel list.
On The Grid
For renowned artist Charles Gaines and his wife, art historian Roxana Landaverde, a simple expansion of their Los Angeles living room turned into the addition of a perforated metal facade—and, now, a much bigger construction project.
A Creative Nature
An artist lets the wind and wildlife of coastal Mexico flow through her radically open home. Without any walls to keep nature out, Deborah Castillo’s thatched roof beach house creates clever ways of living with the world around it.
Is GoFundMe the New Insurance?
The Los Angeles wildfires emphasized an important new function for the fundraising platform: stepping in to help homeowners grappling with the disastrous effects of climate change.
The Eras Tour
A brisk scroll through home design social media will surface eraobsessed creators styling their lives around a favorite decade or historical aesthetic. They will often show it off in a kitchen or a bathroom because those are the most frequently renovated rooms in a home, and as such, they’re the places where the styles of a particular moment tend to find a foothold. Even if committing to the bit and going, say, full-on 1970s sex den or ’90s Tuscan kitchen is too much dip for your chip, you can still find a distinct style for your kitchen or bathroom by mining the past. We talked to designers about how to get a throwback look without going overboard—and also got some words of wisdom from a few of those era aficionados whose love for their particular decade is so strong that they’ve chosen to live just like it.
