Cal
Founded by two friends, Tobi Fox and Cal Fernie. Cal works across fashion, media, and brand production. With a career spanning photography, creative direction, and content, he has developed a deep fluency in how brands communicate - what makes an image land, a story resonate, and an experience feel considered. Tobi is a chef and culinary creative shaped by years in some of the world's most respected kitchens. Driven by a curiosity for culture and technique, his menus are researched, felt, and built to tell a story from the first bite to the last. Together, they founded ARLO out of a shared conviction that food, design, and culture belong in the same room.
