Material-focused interior and object design studio. Founded by Cassandra Bradfield and Sofia Olsson

From raw brass to polished candleholders. ✨

For our customer @asca.studio, we produced two designs in small batches — entirely in-house at Stål & Form, using Ø6, Ø8, Ø10 and Ø40 mm brass stock.

Clever Hands, Creative Minds and Modern Machinery come together as we cut threads, CNC-turn the brass spheres and braze the parts together. Finally, polishing brings out the warm shine of the finished pieces.

A closer look at the machining, craftsmanship and attention to detail behind every candleholder.

At chef and writer Cúán Greene’s (@cuangreene ) restaurant and guesthouse in County Laois, a restored Victorian house and farmstead-inspired architecture provide a home for seasonal cooking, handmade interiors and Irish art. Just outside Abbeyleix, Ómós (@___omos ) brings a 40-seat restaurant and 16-room guesthouse together in a landscape of farmland, woodland and gardens.

Ten guest rooms occupy the main house, with six more in the adjacent coachhouses. Each has its own character, while recurring details connect the spaces. Diamonds and quatrefoils, drawn from Irish folk craft and traditional symbols, appear throughout the millwork and furniture. In the Victorian house, master plasterer Liam O’Farrell restored the plasterwork while incorporating traditional Irish iconography.

Bradfield and Norberg developed bespoke interior systems and furniture collections with local artisans. Historic furniture sits alongside designs produced specifically for Ómós by Cappelen Dimyr (@cappelendimyr ), De la Espada (@delaespada ), Studio Loho (@studioloho ), Made by Choice (@madebychoice ) and TONI Copenhagen (@tonicopenhagen ). In Common With (@incommonwith ) is the principal decorative lighting partner, complemented by Asca Studio’s lighting collection. Mourne Textiles (@mournetextiles ) adds softness to the interiors, while handwoven willow baskets by Hanna Van Aelst (@hannavanaelst ) appear throughout the property.

De La Espada in Ómós⁠
⁠
After 2 years of collaboration with Asca Studio and Relief Gallery for Ómós, our craft and collections line the rooms of this new guesthouse and restaurant in Ireland.⁠
⁠
Twenty-Five Coffee Table by De La Espada Atelier invites conversations around its marble top. ⁠
⁠
Further standard De La Espada products appear throughout, met by bespoke, site-specific furniture pieces designed by the project's interior architects and crafted by De La Espada.⁠
⁠
Ómós is a rich tribute to its local Irish culture and landscape. A sensitive design process by interior architects Asca Studio and Relief Gallery traced the local vernacular back to the surrounding land and histories. ⁠

A look inside Asca Studio Co-Founder Cassandra Bradfield’s Copenhagen home through the eyes of @homestylemag reveals a space layered over time. The 19th-century former paper factory houses Asca’s furniture portfolio alongside pieces made by friends, all amounting to a space that reflects Asca’s ethos: rooted in research, shaped by materials, and crafted by makers.

“Everything is layered over time and shaped by different phases, people, and sources. It continues to evolve, but the filter remains the same: it has to feel right, whether new or old,” says Cassandra.

At chef and writer Cúán Greene’s (@cuangreene ) restaurant and guesthouse in County Laois, a restored Victorian house and farmstead-inspired architecture provide a home for seasonal cooking, handmade interiors and Irish art.

Just outside Abbeyleix, Ómós (@___omos ) brings a 40-seat restaurant and 16-room guesthouse together in a landscape of farmland, woodland and gardens. Led by Cúán Greene, the project connects a producer-led kitchen with interiors shaped by Irish craftsmanship and Scandinavian design. The ambition extends beyond a destination for dinner or an overnight stay, bringing the restaurant, accommodation and grounds into a shared experience of contemporary Irish hospitality.

Greene’s interest in making began well before his career in kitchens. Raised in an Irish-speaking household by glassblower Róisín de Buitléar and artist Terry Greene, he grew up with art and craft close at hand. His time working at Noma and Geranium in Copenhagen later deepened his appreciation of Scandinavian design and its connections with Irish heritage craft. Ómós initially took shape as a newsletter, giving him a space to explore the ideas that would inform the restaurant and guesthouse.

Design became part of the project from its earliest stages. Greene enlisted Cassandra Bradfield and Sofia Olsson of Asca Studio (@asca.studio ), both FRAMA alumni, alongside Rebecca Norberg of Relief Gallery (@relief.gallery )to lead the interior architecture. Over three years, Bradfield and Norberg visited makers, communities and spaces across Ireland, developing a design language grounded in the country’s materials and traditions.

With architectural work by Ryan W. Kennihan Architects (@ryanwkennihan ), the property brings a once-dilapidated Victorian house back into use alongside a new restaurant inspired by the Irish farmstead.

Just over an hour’s drive from Dublin, @___omos in Abbeyleix feels like exactly what Irish hospitality needed. A refreshing, contemporary approach to the country house, with local produce, craft and a genuine sense of place at its heart.

The restaurant is undoubtedly the star attraction. Chef @cuangreene’s menu was unforgettable, each course telling its own story of local produce, foraging and farming. Some incredibly imaginative cooking, with fragrant flavours and unexpected textures that lingered long after each dish, prompting lengthy discussions around the table. One of those meals you find yourself thinking about days later.

What I particularly enjoyed was how that same appreciation for texture and craft carried through into the architecture and interiors. A former stately home, now thoughtfully modernised, with rooms that feel calming, warm and comfortable without being overly designed. Textural plaster walls, tonal timber ceilings, floors and panelling, with furniture and objects from local makers and younger craft ateliers. Hammered metals, worked timber, Irish linens and wools. So many lovely individual details.

The gardens are another highlight, almost painterly in their composition, with washes of wildflowers and colourful planting bringing a playful informality to the grounds. And a rather humble but perfectly placed sauna to sweat away the previous evening’s wine pairing.

A heartfelt thank you to the @___omos team, who each took the time to introduce themselves and made us feel so warmly welcomed. You can really sense the pride and pleasure they take in being part of Omos. And thank you to @hostandcompany for arranging the stay and giving me the opportunity to experience the hotel, its food and its beautiful surroundings.

There’s a difference between observing beauty + absorbing it. Some take it in literally, through what’s right in front of them. Others feel it. It’s an experience that leaves an impression, embedding itself within you. For those who feel it, beauty is often beyond the spoken word.

Ómós is this to me. A simple idea, once intangible, brought to life as something you don’t just see, but feel alive in its company.

Originally produced for @___omos , Nocturne was born to introduce a material counterpoint to the softer textiles in a room.
