Built above
the treeline.

The studio takes its name from the Finnish kero: a bare, weather-shaped peak. We strip our work back to the same line.

Arctic by origin.
Global by reach.

The studio started above the 65th parallel, where the weather is hard and the light is scarce. We’re a European team that works far beyond it, on site across Europe, the Gulf, and the Americas with the teams we build for.
