We love people, we love culture. We are inspired by the mixing of cultures in a new world that redefines borders and boundaries. But we also believe in the diversity of cultural identities, and the beauty of expressing and sharing those with pride.
We believe in equality and fairness. Equal representation. Fair pay. We believe in honest exchange and doing great business. We are not a charity, but want to create business opportunities for talent to thrive. We are in this together.
Partnerships with artists
We have transparent contracts with our artists, ensuring they receive a fair fee for every sale. Each artist also has their own page on our webshop to showcase their work, tell their story, and connect to a global audience.
Partnerships with artisans
We work with Kenyan woodworkers and print companies to perfect our products. Our goal is to help them grow their businesses while creating high-quality craftsmanship.
Without the resources that nature provides, RABA would not exist. We want to keep the world beautiful, inside and outside of the four walls we call our homes. We are a startup at the moment, and work towards the smallest ecological footprint possible.
Local sourcing, local printing
We work with partners in both Europe and Africa. Local sourcing minimises the shipping and environmental impact.
Our materials
In Europe we work with a FSC-certified wood factory is Estonia to manufacture our frames. In Kenya we work with a local woodworker, who we are supporting in obtaining the right certifications. We are in the process of exploring collaborations with artisans creating frames from recycled ocean plastic.
