Two Seater No. 1 - Fluentum Series by Raka Studio, with Velvet Upholstery
About the Item
This piece features a unique design element where the main frame and the inner layers of wood converge to create the back-rest of the piece in a natural flow. The legs of the sofa seamlessly emerge from the frame. All these elements combined create a unique aesthetic which has rarely been achieved before.
The Studio has taken its exploration of wood further with the Fluentum Series. This Series uses techniques and skills learned over the years to create works that embody details that are unique to the Studio's design aesthetic and the craft of bending wood. These techniques allow the natural flow of the wood to take the reins of design; therefore, no two pieces are exactly the same, making each piece unique.
Other points worth knowing:
- The design may vary slightly from the piece in the pictures since each piece is handmade.
- You can choose from an array of finishes.
- The dimensions of the piece are customizable.

Raka Studio
At first glance, the beguiling furniture creations of Raka Studio look like optical illusions. A joint project of three brothers — Saleh, Waleed and Rayan Ahmed Salman — this exciting modern Pakistan-based company marches to the beat of its own drum. Its one-of-a-kind coffee tables, floor lamps and sofas serve as functional pieces of furniture and sculptural works of art.
Raka Studio was established in 2018 after the self-taught brothers produced their first pieces for the family home. The driving force behind all of their visually stunning designs is a love of nature and natural variance. Each piece is made entirely by hand, usually from ash wood imported from the United States, and can take weeks to complete.
In the studio, furniture is curved using ancient Japanese wood-bending techniques, giving the pieces an organic fluidity. The goal is to disrupt prevalent design trends while prioritizing quality craftsmanship. “This approach to our work helps us create distinct pieces that are also technically and aesthetically intriguing,” the brothers explained to StyleRow.
These unique designs have earned Raka Studio critical acclaim and partnerships in the United States and the United Kingdom. The brothers have exhibited at galleries and completed commissions for hotels.
Since its establishment, the studio has grown to include not just the brothers but a team of skilled craftsmen, with plans to introduce new materials and techniques over time. At Raka Studio, it’s all about pushing the limits of design.
