I created this isometric kitchen scene as a way to personal exercise to practice texturing, lighting, and achieving realism in a stylized setting. It was an exercise in pushing my first attempts at realism while still maintaining a sense of design and control. Focusing on how materials, lighting, and composition can guide the viewer’s eye. I approached the project like a graphic designer approaches a layout: considering balance, rhythm, and subtle tension between elements. Beyond practicing technical skills, this piece became a study in how atmosphere can be built from simple forms when detail and restraint work together. Simplicity without being boring; fullness without chaos.
