Melo is handcrafted minimalism. The design studio is based in Dalarna, Sweden, combining humble aesthetics that remove all the unnecessary details with quality craftsmanship.
Their signature material is Ash wood. Ash is a living material with natural variations in pattern, shine and grain; meaning that each piece of furniture is entirely unique.
Ash wood changes with the seasons. It shrinks in dry air and swells in humid conditions. The durability of the surface depends on how hard the wood is and what form of treatment the surface has received. Ash belongs to the Hardwood family and the wood’s high density means it is one of the hardest around.
