RAW furniture - a delight in the authenticity of wood

30 of June '20

Beata Woloszyn and Damian Wasyl, who create the RAW brand, take care of the furniture they design at every stage of the creation process. In the sawmill and carpentry shop they own, they oversee all the pieces. They are driven by their passion for natural wood, its beauty and perfection. They strive to create timeless designs, perfect for any interior.

Wood itself is a timeless material, thanks to which any space can be transformed - the only limit is the imagination of the designer and carpenter. From the hands of Beata Woloszyn and Damian Wasyl, founders of the brand RAW, come out projects that are simple and durable.

Basia Hyjek: How were your designs born?
Beata Woloszyn and Damian Wasyl: In our designs, we primarily try to capture the uniqueness of the natural raw material, we evoke the sensation of touch and our love of carpentry craftsmanship.

In the collection, we have developed our concepts, looking for new ways to create even more functional furniture. Among other things, we enriched the PUFF bed with built-in bedside tables and an autonomous headboard. The design of the ELMA bookcase, based on a combination of horizontal and vertical lines, creates a subtle, clean form, which offers great design possibilities. We achieved dynamism in the form of the RUSH desk with the help of a fine leg design. The Pieces coffee table, on the other hand, is an uncompromising pursuit of perfection. It owes its original appearance to the manual combination of 112 wooden elements vertically and horizontally. The resulting effect is unique and a demonstration of the possibilities of handmade craftsmanship.

Basia: What was their main inspiration?
Beata and Damian: Our main inspiration when designing furniture is to highlight the versatility of wood as a material. It can be a vehicle for traditional designs, as well as a means of dialogue with modernity. It can showcase simple lines as well as more complex designs. It is important that our furniture is functional with a timeless design to stand the test of time.

Basia: Please tell us about the products - what is the creative process like?
Beata and Damian: When creating furniture, we follow the desire to return to nature. Carpentry craftsmanship is the foundation of our brand. Each piece of furniture is made of solid wood using traditional and advanced craftsmanship techniques. We try not to interfere with the beauty of nature, so we use oils and oil-waxes for impregnation.

Undoubtedly, it is very important for us to emphasize the beauty of natural raw material. Although our furniture is simple, with a timeless form, it evokes emotions. By using natural and precious materials, the passage of time gives a deeper expression to our designs. Thanks to the fact that we have our own sawmill and carpentry workshop, we have control over every stage of the production process. This gives us confidence that our actions are responsible and conscious.

Basia: Do you use your own creations in your homes?
Beata and Damian: Since the RAW brand is a reflection of our approach to shaping space, which translates into a conscious choice of the objects we surround ourselves with, the house we live in is full of our furniture. Most of the prototypes go through their first testing phase right there. We hold the first prototypes - the dresser and the ELMA RTV cabinet - with great fondness.
