Each light brings a character all its own to your rooms, standing as both sculptural and artistic elements as well as practical solutions to everyday lighting needs.

Drift Pendant
If you’re looking for serenity, float peacefully with the Drift Pendant light. Perfect for suspending over dining tables and incredibly impactful as entryway lighting, the Drift Pendants can be hung individually or in groups to create ethereal home lighting for modern homes and commercial buildings.
Phase Table Light
For us, this is a classic Resident table light. Phase represents an innovative and imaginative take on the classic table light that delights us whenever we see it. The Phase Table Light is a harmonious contrast between light and shadow, yin and yang, and lunar elements. Pulling these together and setting them against one another creates a table light that draws the eye and offers an open and authentic presence no matter where it’s placed.
Parison Pendant
Hardwired pearls of light drop from your ceiling when you welcome the Parison Pendant into your home. Crafted from either crystalline white or smoked black glass, these globes house the single bulb and offer a soft diffusion of light. Like stars hanging from the ceiling, the Parison Pendants look fantastic as individual pendants or as constellation groupings of two to five.
Fulcrum Table Light
An adjustable light like you’ve never seen before, the Fulcrum Table Light showcases humble cork or warm bronze alongside a paper shade. This combination of more organic and authentic materials creates a light that feels at home anywhere and everywhere. Its softness is balanced by its tall, tower-like form that provides plenty of light without being overbearing.
Oud Table Light
One of the most modern and sculptural lights in the Resident collection, the Oud Table Light is an optical illusion and a playful equilibrium between stark lines and flowing curves. The angled stainless steel tube acts as both base and shade and is anchored by a sphere of polished marble. This light is entrancing which makes it the perfect accent piece on a side table. However, it’s also incredibly functional as a unique desk lamp.
