A few of our earliest Raft pieces are ready for their next chapter so you’ll see huge clearance discounts from this weekend. ✨ (Yes, including our iconic Cube Bed)
Some of them have been with us since the beginning, part of our foundations. However, as our collection evolves and refines, we’ve realised it’s time to let some of them go to make space for what’s coming next.
To mark the moment, from this weekend, alongside our Spring Sale, we’ll be offering them at 50% off - a final farewell and a chance for them to find new homes. 🏡

You’re not bad at colour. You’re just looking in the wrong place.
3 ways you’re doing colour wrong:
1. Starting with trends instead of nature
Stop building from seasonal palettes. Start with what’s timeless: clay, stone, timber, foliage. The combinations that already exist outdoors are the ones that feel instinctively right indoors.
2. Choosing contrast over harmony
Confidence isn’t high contrast. It’s balance.
Warm oak with chalky white. Olive layered with linen. Walnut against soft sand. Colours that sit beside each other, not fight for attention.
3. Overlooking the details that carry personality
Your walls and sofa don’t need to shout. Colour lives in the smaller layers: books stacked on a table, a terracotta pot, framed photographs, woven throws, collected art. These are the elements that give a room depth without overwhelming it.
When you build from natural materials and layer thoughtfully, a space feels grounded. Personal. Effortless.

As human beings, we have an innate connection with the earth, but so often we forget that when furnishing our homes. There is so much comfort to be found in natural materials. Next time you feel there is something missing in your space, consider how anchored in the outside world it is. Your habitat should feel real, tactile and durable.
🌿 At Raft, all of our wooden furniture is exactly that: solid wood. We handcraft soothing designs from reclaimed teak and allow the story of these materials to grow richer in your homes.
📸 Photographed below is our Neve Table, paired with our Clayborne Chairs, and of course, real plants. Have you ever noticed that Raft showrooms always have real plants?
