The Yellow Dwelling: Dot & Line
Duration: 1 Month
​
The Yellow Dwelling’s journey began in 2017 with a search for quality home furnishings that are unique, tasteful yet affordable. The brand’s motto is to create a warm, happy and cheerful home in the most sustainable way. They believe in making ethical and eco-friendly products with simple refreshing designs and colours.
​
The Dot & Line Collection was loosely inspired by the African mud cloth patterns but more importantly the inspiration was derived from the uninhibited squiggles we did at the back of our notebooks, a time we were unabashedly ourselves. Keeping earthy tones and textural fabrics in mind for a sophisticated feel we were able to steer clear of the final products coming across as kitschy.
​
The collection attempted to cater to various customer needs and styles while still keeping in mind that each piece designed must work seamlessly with the next. A mix of boho, eclectic and mid century modern lines were created so as to find homes in any decor style the home owner chooses.
​
The products created included a range of throw cushions in various sizes, curtains, tableware and bedding options. The new products launched were quilted blankets.
Even when it came to the finishing details in the products we chose to work with blanket stitch and wooden bead tassels for a change from the rather overdone pom-poms.
​
The entire collection can be found on their website.
