INSIGHTS
OPPORTUNITY
Market research revealed a surplus of highly decorative, statement-driven furniture, leaving a gap for simple, essential designs. Audience analysis showed that 70% of consumers preferred furniture that combined practicality with subtle design details, while engagement with lifestyle-driven, material-focused storytelling increased by over 40%. Emphasizing the tactile qualities of linoleum strengthened emotional connection, and social engagement on product-focused content grew by 320% on Instagram and 220% on Pinterest. These insights confirmed an opportunity to position Dream House as a provider of foundational, materially-driven furniture that supports everyday life with quiet, playful elegance.
OPPORTUNITY
Dream House could stand out by offering foundational essentials that are thoughtfully designed, materially grounded, and subtly playful. By highlighting functionality, material quality, and lifestyle context, the brand could become synonymous with furniture that quietly supports daily life while creating moments of delight.
THE IDEA
Foundations first, with a touch of play.

E-COMMERCE
Immersive digital experience across desktop and mobile platforms that communicates materiality, functionality, and lifestyle context.
SOCIAL CONTENT

THE EXECUTION
The anthology was designed and distributed online and in print through an 80 page zine and out-of-home placements across New York, London & Sydney turning subway cars, train platforms, and bus stops into unexpected reading moments. Physical drops, pop-ups, an editorial series on DAZED, and direct distribution to literary and cultural communities extended its reach.
Digitally, the campaign rolled out across a custom microsite, social storytelling, and partnerships with influencers and press. Organic content from the couples and writers amplified the campaign’s reach.
