What's in a Hearth? Chefs and Hosting Experts Share their Vintage Dining Sets
DENDWELL | 2022
Generations of social scientists, architects, designers, collectors, and even ancient worshippers of the Greek Goddess Hestia, venerated the Hearth as the center of the Home.

Geoglam: For the Love of Eighties Opulence
DENDWELL | 2022
Let’s rewind the clock… It's December 31, 1981 and you and I are on our way to a New Year’s Eve party at a big house in Staten Island, the home of our mutual, always-ahead-of-the-curve friends and tonight’s hosts (perhaps a previous incarnation of Pete and Kim??).

Moving Beyond White Bouclé: The Rise of Euro Cloud Home
DENDWELL | 2021If enough influencer interiors pass through your Instagram feed, I have no doubt you’ve seen a fair amount of white bouclé. The textile often shows up on statement pieces — an outrageous chair or a swooping sofa — and has almost invariably appeared in a limited spectrum of whites. But bouclé has been around for quite a while and the past couple of years are by no means its first heyday. As we like to keep an eye on trends in home objects, we found ourselves asking, ‘what comes next after bouclé?’ [CONTINUE READING]
