About

Chad Dorsey is the principal of Chad Dorsey Design, an interiors and architecture practice with offices in Dallas and Los Angeles. Working across a broad range of project types and scales, he’s known for his distinctive brand of relaxed luxury. This unique aesthetic vision is rooted in a love of natural materials, handcrafted details, quiet palettes, and a fluid relationship between architecture and interiors. He creates highly personalized spaces tailored to each client, and frequently collaborates with artisans and makers on bespoke furnishings. Custom pieces are layered with sculptural furniture and objects from a variety of periods and styles, creating sophisticated rooms that are both luxurious and approachable.
