THE STORY
For more than three decades, Susan Dunn has shaped an enduring vision of luxury—one defined not by excess, but by intention, artistry, and the transformative power of water. Her creations, imbued with a singular aesthetic sensibility, stand as refined expressions of wellness and design, each reflecting a life devoted to beauty with purpose.
A Stanford alumna with an inherently entrepreneurial spirit, Susan’s early ventures in designer women’s fashion, intimates, and accessories established the foundation for her evolution into the world of luxury home and lifestyle. Across every chapter, her work has remained guided by craftsmanship, innovation, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence.
At the outset of her career, Susan introduced her pioneering One-Size-Fits-Most™ SPA Slippers with patented SOLE MATES® non-slip soles—an innovation that redefined comfort within the luxury marketplace. Embraced by a devoted following, these creations marked the beginning of what would become the SPA Wear movement: a visionary union of indulgence, wellness, and everyday living.
That early success became the foundation for Susan Dunn Luxury Collections—her most complete expression of water-inspired design. Today, each creation stands as an individual work of art, while together the collections form a cohesive world where architecture, craftsmanship, wellness, and the senses exist in perfect harmony.
Meticulously conceived and curated, the collections unite exceptional materials—including eco-conscious brass, precious metals and gemstones, hand-blown glass, and bespoke textiles—with master artisan craftsmanship. Subtly infused with Susan’s signature essential oil blend, they engage the senses beyond the visual, creating an atmosphere of balance, tranquility, and well-being.
Throughout every collection, her distinct design expressions—Bejeweled, Eternity, Purity, Serenity, and Unity—reflect emotional narratives that invite a deeper connection to the spaces we inhabit and the lives we lead.
At the Heart of Villa Solace
At the heart of Susan Dunn’s creative life is Villa Solace—her private sanctuary, living atelier, and the place where her philosophy is experienced each day.
Surrounded by the quiet presence of water, her daily rituals within the pool and spa become acts of restoration, reflection, and inspiration. It is here that ideas are refined, materials are considered, and every collection evolves with intention.
Villa Solace is more than a residence. It is the living expression of a belief that beauty, balance, and wellness are inseparable—and that water possesses the remarkable ability to restore, transform, and elevate everyday life.
Guiding Every Creation
Guiding every Susan Dunn creation is the philosophy of SOLACE PER AQUA®—Peace Through Water.
More than a registered trademark, it is the foundation upon which every collection is conceived. Every detail, every finish, and every material is considered through this lens, resulting in creations that unite artistry, craftsmanship, wellness, and enduring beauty.
Each collection stands as an individual work of art while contributing to a larger, immersive world—one where thoughtful design nurtures the senses and transforms everyday rituals into extraordinary experiences.
THE INVITATION
Susan Dunn Luxury Collections invite you into a world where artistry, wellness, and timeless craftsmanship exist in harmony.
Every creation is designed not simply to furnish a home, but to enrich the way it is lived—encouraging moments of beauty, tranquility, and meaningful connection.
True luxury is not defined by what we possess, but by how we choose to experience life.
