RAFT is a timeless versatile and comfortable product with customizable dimensions and multiple configuration options. A team of famous Ukrainian designers from the SVOYA studio designed it especially for DONNA furniture company and its clients.

The concept of the RAFT sofa is based on the image of a dinghy from which the designers borrowed inflated shapes and details, held together by rope-like stitching. The material and color of RAFT are available at the customer’s choice. However, DONNA furniture company shares its recommendations regarding the materials, intending to provide the customer with a product in its perfect form in which it's possible to trace the special design of its author.


The product uses Austrian Blum fittings and includes a bedside table. At the customer's request, the product's dimensions can vary as well as the number of elements included in it. For the integrity of the composition, each model is finalized by the designers of our factory on an individual basis.
