About Nest & Dwell
We believe every space has a story — and we're here to help tell yours beautifully.
Our Story
Nest & Dwell Interiors was founded in 2014 by lead designer Elena Torres, a Portland native with a passion for transforming spaces. What started as a solo design consultancy has grown into a full-service studio known for warm, livable luxury.
Our philosophy is simple: great design should feel effortless. We blend your personality with timeless principles of proportion, color, and light to create spaces that feel both beautiful and deeply personal.
Over the years, we've transformed 300+ homes, staged properties that sold 30% faster than market average, and built lasting relationships with Portland homeowners, realtors, and builders.
