Steel

Mitchell wanted to detail the solid oak staircase with that same sense of openness, even though its materials are heavy.

The sculpture on the wall is by artist Peter Dudek, a friend of the family, and the pendants are by Glashütte Limburg.

Steel allowed Kunding to be playful with the staircase’s form.

The staircase leading to the master suite features aluminum treads supported on stainless steel tubes.
