Williams-Sonoma, Inc., the world’s largest digital-first, design-led and sustainable home retailer, announced the launch of the company’s tenth brand, Dormify. Designed to meet the evolving needs of students and young consumers navigating dormitories and compact living environments, Dormify offers a curated, modern assortment of stylish and highly functional home furnishings. Through the newly launched Dormify website, customers can engage with the brand’s inspirational content, design their dream bed, build a personalized wish list, access curated checklists, and receive complimentary design and shopping guidance.
The launch of Dormify underscores Williams-Sonoma, Inc.’s continued investment in portfolio expansion and the company’s strategy to reach new customer segments through differentiated, lifestyle-driven brands. This strategic portfolio expansion positions Williams-Sonoma, Inc. to further capture the underpenetrated dorm and small-space living market by introducing a fresh, accessible design perspective–while upholding the quality standards and customer service offerings that define the company’s brands.
“Dormify represents a powerful opportunity to meet customers at an important life stage with a new brand that is both design-forward and highly functional,” said Williams-Sonoma, Inc. President and CEO Laura Alber. “This brand positions us to capture greater market share in dorm living and creates an additional opportunity for our company to continue to build lasting relationships with the next generation of customers.”
“As experts in the dorm category, Dormify allows us to thoughtfully expand our reach and our ability to empower customers to create stylish spaces in rooms of any size,” said Jennifer Kellor, President of Pottery Barn Kids, Pottery Barn Teen and Dormify. “Every product is designed with intention–blending smart functionality with a fresh, trend-driven aesthetic that is both modern and comfortable.”
By leveraging the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. retail network of more than 450 stores, Dormify has also launched the Pick-Up Near Campus™ program, allowing students to place orders and conveniently pick them up at a WSI store location near campus on a preferred date. Customers who select Pick-Up Near Campus™ at checkout will be paired with a dedicated Dormify concierge to coordinate delivery and help avoid common issues associated with campus mailrooms, apartment buildings, and shared-living locations.
