Designing for projects means starting from scratch and giving so much more than defined in the brief: It’s Time for Stilts™, part 2…
It’s been more than a year since we introduced you to how Raw applies design supply services to large projects, so we thought it’s time we give you a refresher of what’s been unfolding at the University Pretoria/Earthworld Architects’ Future Africa Institute project and more specifically our Stilts system.

Greenhouse
Despite all the project specific design/supply happening in the background, our Epik workspace range is proving itself as adaptable and timeless as ever with more and more businesses seeing value in a well-considered workplace. A client recently approached us, stating that “Our workspace had become a grey, muted and uninventive environment, with staff members […]
WallSpace™: If you build it… designers will solve great things with it.
While Stilts (haven’t read about this system? Catch up here…) has been evolving through its various development phases, another design supply product has been running parallel on quite a different track. Peter Matthews from MAAA approached us at Raw Studios to develop a system for a new project also headed by the University of Pretoria […]
Re-workshop
Round and round she goes… Could it make a substantial difference in cost efficiency and cut down significantly on waste if smaller workshops followed the design principles around larger production lines? Damn right it could. We reimagined and reorganized our production processes to follow closed loop (circular) systems to get closer to a production line […]
“We get it, and we love it!” say judges at 100% Design.
What a great feeling when we get recognition for our work on workspace furniture and systems that make workdays more productive, healthy and enjoyable. We have been bringing fresh thinking into a rather unimaginative office furniture industry and the waves that we have made have not gone unnoticed… Hence this award. See the new epik™ […]
Our new award winning Work_epik products are here to steal the show, and for good reason…
Designed for flexibility and engagement on sooo many levels, the new additions also don’t hold back on “epik-ness”. For the last few months we have been engaged in developing what we believe are products that will help activate and energise the workplace and specifically help teams to do their thing effectively. At 100% Design this […]
The Raw Creature now a Feature.
When you think and design differently from other companies you initially meet with a lot of resistance and disbelief especially in something as formal as the workspace industry, after all humans are creatures that prefer to follow, to copy and to play it safe. At RAW we have never done any of those things and […]
Birth of a new kind of awesome… it’s Stilts™
So you’ve watched the teaser video, above, right? Good, now let’s get you up to speed with the rest of the story. In our last blog newsletter we gave a little taste of a current project for the University of Pretoria , which sparked the development of a brand new furniture range. (Didn’t read it? […]
Workers Rise Up! Join the movement!
Something is stirring deep within the belly of our beautiful motherland and it’s time that workers everywhere rise up and show that they have had enough! “Had enough of what?” the unenlightened employer may ask. At RAW we are fighting the system, the system that keeps providing us with ill conceived, unsustainable, badly designed and […]
