Art Is Community: RAW & UNIQ Featured in The Walnut Branch Volume 5

There is something truly special about creating locally and becoming part of a community that celebrates creativity in all its forms.

We are incredibly honored that one of our handcrafted concrete creations, Blush Glass Rift, has been selected for publication in The Walnut Branch – Volume 5, Chattanooga’s community-driven art and literature magazine. Our work appears on Page 87 alongside more than 100 local artists, writers, musicians, and visual creators who help make Chattanooga’s creative community so unique.

At RAW & UNIQ, every piece begins as raw concrete and is carefully handcrafted in our Chattanooga studio. Seeing our work recognized in a publication that celebrates local creativity reminds us why supporting artists and makers matters.

A Magazine Where Art Is Community

Published by Walnut Street Publishing, The Walnut Branch brings together creators from across Chattanooga in a single collection of art, literature, and storytelling. The magazine highlights the diversity of local talent while encouraging collaboration, inspiration, and connection throughout the community.

Being included in this volume is a meaningful milestone for RAW & UNIQ and reflects our passion for creating modern handmade concrete décor that blends sculptural design with everyday functionality.

About Blush Glass Rift

The featured piece, Blush Glass Rift, explores the contrast between raw concrete and delicate blush-toned glass textures. The design combines organic materials with contemporary forms, creating a sculptural object that feels both modern and timeless.

This balance between minimalism, texture, and handcrafted detail continues to define the philosophy behind every RAW & UNIQ collection.

Supporting Chattanooga’s Creative Community

We are grateful to Walnut Street Publishing for including our work in this inspiring collection and for creating a platform that celebrates local artists and makers.

Congratulations to every artist, writer, and musician featured in Volume 5. We are proud to be part of a community that continues to support creativity and demonstrate that art truly is community.

Thank you to everyone who has supported RAW & UNIQ throughout this journey. Your encouragement makes opportunities like this possible, and we look forward to creating many more pieces inspired by Chattanooga and the people who call it home.
