Before launching his business in Amsterdam, Lockhorn had worked on lighting a huge Philips building in Eindhoven (where he later opened a second Raak branch). Raak&#8217;s tagline was &#8220;Illuminated Architecture&#8221; which gave the brand prestige in producing designs that integrate harmoniously with sophisticated, high concept interiors.
