A sauna and treehouse in one? Count us in. 🌲
Designed by @daichi_nature in the forests of Kanagawa, Japan, this elevated retreat is built directly around the existing trees, letting the landscape shape the architecture instead of the other way around.

#CernoInspiration #Treehouse
Cerno was born from chasing adventure. Skateboarding without a destination, surfing until the light disappeared, always looking for what was just beyond the next turn.
It was never about getting it perfect… only the instinct to explore, experiment, and keep moving forward.
That same sense of freedom and discovery continues to shape everything Cerno creates.

The Shell by @mariustroy is a speculative series of bathing structures inspired by marine shell geometry. 🐚
Spiral growth patterns and layered surfaces are translated into inhabitable forms… small pavilions where curved shells fold around pools and bathing areas.
The geometry guides water, light, and movement at once, acting as enclosure, roof, and structure.
A digital study in biomorphic architecture, exploring how organic forms can shape intimate spaces for retreat.

At The Pavilion by @feldmanarchitecture , our Vix Linear and Aeris Pendants align with the home’s verticality, while wood tones introduce a quiet warmth.

Our Mica pendants, suspended in a cascading arrangement, bring movement and depth to the staircase at this coastal residence designed by @progressivemkt .

The Amicus pendant can be a bold statement piece or a subtle accent based on where the pendant is placed. 💫
Both sculptural and atmospheric, each pendant is formed from a series of thin, curved slats that wrap into a softened dome, allowing light to filter through in layers.
The result is a warm, diffused glow that feels textured rather than direct, casting subtle linear shadows and depth.

A garage, reimagined as a gallery in the hillside of Herdern, Switzerland.
Designed in 1994 by Peter Kunz for a Swiss collector, the structure is set into the hillside… concrete, quiet, and exacting. Each bay reads as a vitrine, softly lit, holding the car as object.
Glass inscriptions by Oliver Kühn introduce a more personal layer, marking the relationship between owner and machine.

Being connected to the ocean is a very real feeling that is hard to put into words. It’s home, it provides a sense of calm, it’s cathartic, it’s humbling, and almost nothing compares to sharing some great waves with your lifelong best friends.

If we weren’t at work…
We’d love to be at Seascape, a house in Banks Peninsula, New Zealand, designed by @pattersonassociates . 📸: @samuel_hartnett

The Veram flush mount and pendant were born out of many conversations with our clients asking us for a dynamic, minimalist fixture made with Cerno’s signature wood and metal material palette.
Incredibly versatile, Veram works well in a luxury residential environment or providing the perfect accent in a commercial conference room, while providing ample light.

Every fixture starts here. Our California workshop, where the team brings light to life by hand…one piece at a time.
