This summer’s issue of ELEVATE by KBAA explores luxury hospitality through the lens of Infinite Brilliance. To us, the idea of brilliance expands further than eyecatching artwork. It’s an ode to the incredible partners, art advisors, brands, and artists we get to collaborate with, each bringing their own perspective to the process. Our role is to bring these voices into alignment and ensure every detail feels intentional. The outcome is not just cohesive, it’s layered. Always reflecting a shared vision brought to life with precision and care.

 

 

The projects and stories highlighted in this issue represent our approach to luxury hospitality at the highest level. Each one balances multiple narratives while staying grounded in our guiding pillars: a strong sense of place, a clear expression of brand, and a deeply considered guest experience.

In this issue you’ll explore work for global brands like Four Seasons, St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton, Waldorf Astoria, and more. For over three decades, KBAA has been immersed in the world of luxury hospitality growing alongside incredible brand partners who continue to define it. We are so grateful for the body of work shared in this issue that continues to expand, guided by curiosity and an ongoing pursuit of what’s possible with art in luxury spaces.

 

 

 

We hope you enjoy flipping through this lovely issue where you’ll hear directly from the voices that shape the work. From a roundtable with our art advisors to a deep exploration of what luxury means through our lens, these perspectives offer a deeper look into what it takes to create work that feels both elevated and enduring.
