In plain words
Dwell is a social network designed for people interested in design. Launched in 2016, it provides a platform where design enthusiasts can connect, share, and discuss design-related content. The service caters to individuals passionate about design across various disciplines, offering a community space specifically built around design interests rather than general social networking. It functions as both a design-focused social platform and discovery tool for the design-obsessed community.
