Kashmir Chair

Resident is a New Zealand design house known for collaborating with both established and emerging international designers to bring new perspectives to furniture and lighting. The collection is defined by clean lines, controlled proportions, and a restrained material palette that emphasizes clarity over excess.

Drawing from a resourceful, “less but better” mindset shaped by its island origins, Resident focuses on essential forms and thoughtful construction. Production is carried out through a global network of specialized makers, from lighting fabrication in Auckland to expert timber and upholstery workshops abroad, ensuring precision and consistency across the range.

The result is contemporary design that feels deliberate and composed, created for long term use rather than short term impact.
