Choosing the perfect furniture online for your home might be difficult. Many of our customers, therefore, request wood samples, so they can see and touch the materials Rafa-kids uses. We used to make our samples from simple wooden blocks. After some time we realized that this creates unnecessary waste, as probably most of our customers throw away the wood samples after seeing them. It felt wrong. The material we use is an expensive 1st class birch plywood and how painful is it to throw it in the rubbish bin?
That’s why we decided to create wood samples as products to be used afterward. Going even a step further, we reuse the leftover wood from our production to make them! Let’s think smart about waste and how to minimalize its production by reusing cleverly what we already have.
Rafa-kids wood samples stationery. It’s a small organizer that you can put on your K desk. There will be space for all the little things that tend to get lost – pencils, pins, or notes. All elements are finished in the same colours as our Rafa-kids furniture: natural, white, and black. Use this wood sample to choose the right tone for your furniture and keep it for the future as an elegant piece of desk stationery.
Let’s talk more about the material we use and why we care about it so much. Rafa-kids makes furniture from birch plywood which grows slowly in the cold Finnish forests. The harsh Scandinavian environment makes the material strong and durable. The plywood is an extra 21mm thick. We protect it with special water-based lacquers to keep it in great shape for years.
Hopefully, you understand now why we are so obsessed with this beautiful material. We try our best to use every bit of it, and we think that our wood sample/stationery is a smart and playful way to do that.
What makes furniture sustainable? At a time when many companies greenwash their customers, we transparently tell you our key points about what a Sustainable Furniture Brand means at Rafa-kids. When Rafa-kids started in 2012, it was natural for us to create furniture for kids Sustainably. It’s in the heart of our brand.
Quill lives with his parents and twin brother in Melbourne. It’s refreshing to see different aesthetics for a Boy’s room and run away from the stereotypes! His talented mom Sarah was very kind to answer a few of my questions about the designing process, let’s have a look >
How are you in the new decade? Are you feeling fresh and ready or rather a bit in a fog of things? After two weeks of family time, Rafa-kids is slowly getting back on track.
I find it truly inspiring to discover Olja’s style and how her aesthetic extends beyond her work into their family home. Even with the arrival of her son Leo, the family hasn’t compromised on love for decorating, or style. It’s a beautiful reminder that style and family life can coexist!
