Tenlie Mourning is an interior designer dedicated to material honesty and architectural precision, crafting environments that balance minimalism with textural depth, restraint with warmth, and aspiration with authenticity. Based between New York and Paris, the practice delivers residential design-build projects for clients who recognize that extraordinary interiors cultivate extraordinary experiences. Before establishing her interiors practice, she founded Dendwell, a curated marketplace for vintage furniture that deepened her understanding of craft, provenance, and the enduring value of quality materials, principles that now inform every project. She holds a degree in Architecture from Columbia University, and the studio is open to projects across North America and Western Europe.
