We have been honing our home creation skills throughout 2019 and it has been an exciting experimental year for us. Why do we work so hard at this you may wonder? It’s our way of preparing ourselves for creating our biggest product yet, Inhouse™. First we started with Nestling, a micro-living container and now we’re […]

Raw bringing it in with Inhouse at 100% Design 2019
There are a few things that keep us motivated here at Raw Studios… from the smell of freshly made coffee to start our day to exciting new products and projects that energise us and encourage us to grow and push the boundaries. The third motivator is when hard work pays off… This got new meaning […]

Raw Studios is much rawer than expected
Earlier this year Peet was given the opportunity to talk about his journey with Raw Studios at the Pretoria Institute for Architects’ Ideas Conference. With 13 years in the making, multiple ranges and 100’s of products available, 45 minutes was just too short to give a complete picture, so we made a short video to […]
Crafting furniture to live in, literally…
We took our knowledge of furniture design, engineered materials and CNC manufacturing and applied it at a much larger scale to start creating our new range of furniture you can live in. Nestling is a work-in-progress micro-living container and the beginning of something much bigger. Crafting the container also led us into developing a modular […]
