The correct form of using a noun as a modifier is the singular. For example:

horse farm (a farm where horses are raised)
garden party (a party where the guests are in a garden)
street light (a light that illuminates the street)
show boat (a boat which has entertainment or shows)
autumn leaves (the leaves that are yellow, red, orange and brown in the fall)

Are you talking about a house or apartment that has a balcony?

The words 'dwelling' and 'gallery' are not very common in my experience.

Can you provide a complete sentence for us to comment on?

My two cents? I had no idea what "dwelling(s) gallery" was supposed to mean when I read the original post.

I would say that it is very unclear what you are talking about. Until I read your explanation I had the vague idea that it might refer to a collection of photographs of different types of dwellings. I would not have guessed home accessories.

I already wrote what it would mean to me - a set of rooms in natural history or anthropology museum where houses, tents, caves, and other forms of human habitation (or animal habitation) are on display for visitors to look at
