Dwemer (called Dwarves by men) are an extinct race of elves known for their technologically advanced society. Dwarven society began in Morrowind and spread to Skyrim, Hammerfell, and beyond. They disappeared suddenly in 1E 700, leaving behind Dwemer ruins inhabited by their still-functioning automatons. Sotha Sil also took inspiration from the Dwemer when making his Clockwork City.
The Dwemer lived in strongholds, which are typically laden with ancient steam-powered contraptions, many of which are still running. There are hundreds if not thousands of Dwarven buildings made of precise square shapes, but far fewer examples of rounded or curved stonework, suggesting the Dwemer favored well-calculated designs based on angled lines rather than riskier, more imprecise calculations using arcs and curves.
In architecture and engineering, the prevalent style in the North is "Deep Venue".
Depicted here however, is the Arcanex style, furnishings found in above-ground structures that are believed to have been research centers of some kind.
Numerous pipes can be found in and around Dwemer ruins, and many devices and constructs appear to emit steam from their inner workings. There may be "boilers" or similar components housed inside the Dwemer Centurions. It also seems that many objects which may be found in ruins were once covered in mesh or cloth, which has decayed over the years. This would explain why the "home comforts" of the Dwemer may seem very spartan to a visitor.
