Asca Studio and Relief Gallery Transform Abbeyleix Ruin into 16-Room Guesthouse with Tactile Interiors
🏚 Ómós guesthouse, located outside Abbeyleix, Ireland, was transformed from a Victorian ruin into a 16-room haven by Ryan W Kennihan Architects. The interior, crafted by Asca Studio and Relief Gallery, fuses tactile materials like Kilkenny limestone, ash, and lime plaster, balancing weight, warmth, and acoustics. There’s also an adjoining restaurant inspired by Irish farmsteads, highlighting consistent internal symbology and material palettes across the spaces.
