DWR Overview
About Design Within Reach Design Within Reach, Inc., founded in 1998 and headquartered in San Francisco, is a retailer of distinctive modern furniture and well-designed objects that enrich daily life. We market and sell our products to both residential and commercial customers in the continental U.S., as well as in Hawaii and Canada. At DWR, we present our assortment in an educational context, providing detailed information about the designer and key functional elements about each product. From iconic mid-20th-century works to innovative items designed today, Design Within Reach sells clean and simple products, representing ideas, materials and processes that span categories and countries. Authentic design is something we’re proud to offer; elitism, however, is not. Visit any of our locations, and you’ll never see a “Do Not Touch” sign. We invite customers to linger, bring their dog or kids and join us for design events. At our website, www.dwr.com, customers can shop our complete assortment and find additional finishes and styles not shown in our books or locations. Whether customers experience DWR in-person, by phone or online, they receive knowledgeable assistance from people who come from design backgrounds. At DWR, we’re passionate about design.
