Build + Design Day at Residium: A Day in Review
A special thank you to our exhibitors and collaborators who brought our latest Build + Design Day the day to life on Saturday March 7. From hands-on workshops to expert advice and creative installations, there was something happening in every corner of the showroom:
SOK Studios x ABI Interiors perfume-making workshops
Meet the Creators Lounge with Alex Walls (Walls Studio), Katie Scott (Sticks + Stones Design), and Jeyan + Sana (Arc)
Resene Creative Corner Pop-Up, where many of you painted your own pieces (with impressively minimal mess)
Pop-Up Exhibition by Emma Bass
Temuka Pottery installation (thank you Lucy!)
Innovative Kitchens seminar with Lisa Thesing
Designer consultations with Michelle Samuels, Kitchen Mania, and Mal Corboy
Duck Island gelato throughout the day
Special guests Terrazzo & Stone
These moments added an extra layer of creativity and interaction, giving visitors the chance to experience design in a more hands-on and engaging way, as well as connect directly with the people behind the products. We were also very proud to partner with New Zealand Design Week for this event, and look forward to continuing that partnership in 2027.
We’re already looking forward to the next Build + Design Day on October 17 and can’t wait to welcome you back. In the meantime, we have a full programme of seminars and in-centre activations coming up. Keep an eye on Instagram for upcoming opportunities to learn with Residium, or visit our Events Calendar to see what’s on.
