New Zealand-based design brand 'Resident' enjoys its first modern furniture installation in New York City and the showroom conveniently coincides with the NYCxDESIGN event. The stylish and homey collection is characterized by a largely contemporary design that perfectly ties into an interior, informed by industrial setting. With exposed brick walls in the background and exceptionally high ceilings, Resident's 'Travelling Without Bags' offering proves to be an ideal candidate for New York interiors, especially for those in lofty spaces.
The modern furniture installation is arranged by Rufus Knight. The collection is strongly informed by geometric shapes and natural materials. The lighting boasts interesting shapes — from delicate hexagonal structures to exquisite glass bubbles. The rest of Resident's furniture collection stylishly accompanies the lamps with bold wood, pastel-colored chairs and privacy-providing loveseats.
