Tabitha Organ, the London-based interior designer and Tabitha Isobel studio founder, and Dom Callaghan, the multidisciplinary Dartmoor-based artist and maker, have unveiled their seamless and sculptural homeware collection where ‘every line and surface carries weight and meaning’…
This month witnesses the launch of a debut series of fancifully sculpted homeware pieces from interior designer Tabitha Organ and multidisciplinary maker Dom Callaghan.

Titled Ferro, the limited-edition capsule range includes a side table, wall lamp and framed mirror, each made by hand in Dom’s Dartmoor workshop. Defined by contrasts – soft and hard, organic and industrial, refined and elemental – the collection uniquely explores materiality, balance and form.
“The collaboration between Dom and I grew organically for a shared respect for material, process and integrity of making,” says Tabitha Organ, formerly a designer at Conran + Partners. “We were both interested in creating something that felt confident but calm. We wanted to create objects that feel expressive yet grounded and invite a slower kind of looking.”

At the collection’s core is the pairing of London Plane – a richly grained, hardwood – with brushed stainless steel. The timber is sourced from Fallen & Felled, a London-based initiative that reclaims wood from felled city trees adding both sustainable integrity and narrative depth to each piece.
Crafted by Dom, a Ruskin School of Art alumni, his background in art, blacksmithing, fine leatherwork and reverence for process stands out in the Ferro collection. Every joint, curve and angle is exact, though much of the joinery is concealed, inviting the viewer to wonder – how does it all fit together?
Dom comments: “I like the idea that function can feel poetic. When you pare something back to its essentials, every line and surface must carry weight and meaning. The joinery is hidden; the lines are resolved, there’s a mystery to how it all fits together and the restraint is part of the beauty.”

The Ferro collection in detail:
- Side table – a quietly confident side table that pairs a solid London Plane top with a single brushed stainless-steel leg. The curved-edge tabletop softens the bold geometry of the architectural piece, while the offset steel detail introduces a subtle tension.
- Wall lamp – a folded geometric form in brushed stainless steel with a minimal profile and origami-like silhouette offers mood, function and quiet decoration.
- Mirror – Framed in a checkerboard of alternating London Plane tones, the rectangular mirror is both playful and restrained. Its graphic repetition highlights the natural variance in the timber, offering texture, rhythm, character and pattern without excess.

The collection is an elegant example of contemporary minimalism and a determined fusion of sculpture and function – a sophisticated pairing which Hotel Designs looks forward to seeing in situ!
