Each silhouette in the range entertains an elongated form that extends and effortlessly showcases the high-quality material combination of the lamps. In terms of construction, Cerno utilizes walnut wood, leather, and brass. These elements have been combined to introduce a strong balance and a sophisticated feel. The main aim with this capsule for designer Nick Sheridan was to "illuminate the wood body of the fixture to showcase the grain." The Penna collection spotlights two elegant lighting designs that are ideal for the interior of the contemporary home or a classy dining establishment. One is a pendant fixture and the other silhouette is a wall sconce. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sculptural Lighting Designs:** Create lighting fixtures that showcase unique and artistic forms, providing an elegant and visually striking touch to any space. - **Material Combinations:** Combine different high-quality materials, such as wood, leather, and brass, to create sophisticated and balanced lighting designs. - **Interior Lighting for Contemporary Spaces:** Design lighting fixtures specifically tailored for modern homes and upscale dining establishments, adding a touch of class and sophistication to these spaces. ### Where This Applies - **Interior Design:** Incorporate sculptural lighting designs into interior spaces, creating visually appealing and unique environments. - **Luxury Goods:** Combine different materials like wood, leather, and brass to create high-end lighting fixtures that appeal to a discerning clientele. - **Hospitality:** Provide elegant lighting options for upscale dining establishments that enhance the ambiance and create a memorable dining experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Soft Luxe Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lantern-silk-collection.md) - [Concentric Geometric Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caleide.md) - [Ultra-Chic Sculptural Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design.md) - [Heritage Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crown-lighting.md) - [Silk Textural Lantern Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lantern-collection.md) - [Wooden Pendant Lamp Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wood-collection-1.md) - [Experimental Ancestral Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kawabi.md) - [Artfully Functional Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chant.md) - [Artfully Liquid-Like Light Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cairn-lamp.md)
