Luxury Marble Kitchen Spiral Stair

Project Overview

Luxury Marble Kitchen Spiral Stair started with a conversation about what this kitchen and bath project in Chicago, IL needed to communicate. The answer was 2 carefully planned views, each telling a different part of the design story.

Grand luxury kitchen and dining space with a dramatic marble waterfall island, light wood paneled cabinetry, ornate branch-style chandeliers, coffered ceiling with cove lighting, a round walnut dining table, and a wrought-iron spiral staircase in the background.

The Challenge

Lighting was the quiet challenge here. The kitchen & bath designer wanted Daylight conditions, and getting those to look natural — not staged, not oversaturated — is where a lot of archviz falls flat.

At 2 deliverables, there’s a real risk of redundancy — views that look too similar or don’t add new information. We planned the camera positions deliberately so every image earned its place in the set.

Our Approach

We shared work-in-progress renders with the kitchen & bath designer at two key milestones: after initial composition lock and after material refinement. Both rounds stayed tight — targeted feedback, fast turnarounds.

We ran the first round of test renders at reduced resolution to get quick feedback on composition, materials, and overall mood. This let us catch issues early when changes were cheap, not late when they weren’t.

We leaned on physically-based rendering throughout. Every material — glass, stone, metal, timber — was defined by real-world optical properties. That’s what makes the difference between a render that looks ‘nice’ and one that looks true.

The Result

Production closed within 3-5 days. The hero image is now the signature visual for Luxury Marble Kitchen Spiral Stair, and the supporting gallery views have been deployed across the kitchen & bath designer’s marketing channels.
