Trevor Bernardo is a Los Angeles–based architectural and spatial design director with over a decade of experience across architecture and fabrication. As the founder of Arrogant Studio, he leads the creative vision across built environments, interiors, brands and spatial works—guiding projects from initial narrative through design development, fabrication, and execution.
His work is defined by a balance of conceptual clarity and material precision, with an emphasis on environments that feel both intentional and immediate. Trevor approaches each project as a complete system where form, surface, lighting, and program operate together to create a cohesive spatial language. The result is work that is restrained yet expressive, grounded yet future-facing.
Operating across disciplines and scales, he collaborates closely with fabricators, engineers, and creative partners to translate ideas into built reality. His process is informed by a deep understanding of how things are made, allowing him to move fluidly between vision and execution.
At its core, Trevor’s work is about creating spaces that hold presence. Environments that are not only seen, but felt, used, and remembered.
