Summary

For her first book in ten years, Kelly Wearstler, one of the most irreverent and fascinating designers working today, continues to push boundaries with her inventive and opulent interiors, here inviting readers into her latest creations including her newly designed home。

Celebrated for luxurious interiors that capture the swankiness of old-world Hollywood with a modern pop sensibility, Wearstler is known for her decadent designs of residences and boutique hotels, such as the line of Viceroys and the tastemakers Maison 140 and Avalon。 Her ornate interiors are distinctive for layers of bold textures, patterns, and rich colors juxtaposed with lustrous surfaces, adding up to a whimsical and elegant look that has been called mod baroque。

Here Wearstler shares her creative world, profiling in detail her latest residential and commercial designs (several previously unpublished) and her sumptuous new San Francisco Proper Hotel, as well as her creative process。 Full of ideas and with beautiful images of many never-before-photographed interiors, Kelly Wearstler: Evocative Style is an inspirational look at the designer's inventive work。

Filled with new work, this volume is a must for other designers and homeowners looking for elegant design inspiration and ideas。

just wonderful opulent maximalism! fun to peak into the lushness of highend society and see that sometimes what dazzles is indeed gold。

Maximalism to its finest。 Not much to read in there but it’s an inspiring book for interior styles。 Kelly challenges conventional styles :)

Staggering & breathtaking。 My heart skipped a beat when I flipped pages and read the vignettes describing design。 When days have been endlessly gray & the headlines are endlessly, well, gray, this book bursts through that haze。 It deserves to live in plain sight as a sculpture, honoring and reminding of the everyday transformations that interiors (paired with intense wanderlust!) activate。 Turning each page was the closest I've felt to traveling in 12+ months。 Every page shows design moments tha Staggering & breathtaking。 My heart skipped a beat when I flipped pages and read the vignettes describing design。 When days have been endlessly gray & the headlines are endlessly, well, gray, this book bursts through that haze。 It deserves to live in plain sight as a sculpture, honoring and reminding of the everyday transformations that interiors (paired with intense wanderlust!) activate。 Turning each page was the closest I've felt to traveling in 12+ months。 Every page shows design moments that bring power and quiet, with intimacy and impact。 That tension keeps your eye looking for pattern, color, texture, and lighting。 Interiors shape all our most noble pursuits, and this collection helped my imagination realize that masterpieces manifest in the spaces we most cherish。 。。。more
