If you are well-versed in design, this is a book with infinite layers. She has taken instruction from the greatest designers and has been able to put a signature on her interpretation. and she says that I can make Madison Ave. To see how much skill is required to achieve the elegance that Kelly does, look at the kitschiness of Jonathan Adler's recent interior endeavors. I always tell my sister that she can make Salvation Army look like Madison Ave. used. There is such a fine line and Kelly understands this. Shelter mag junkies will recognize her one of the great designers of our time. It's the visual equivalent to the experience of drifting into a thousand other places from a great line in a book. Hollywood Regency has been attached to her, but she has a style that draws most dominantly from David Hicks (they have red rooms that are nearly identical). The result is rich but unpretentious. She has an incredible eye and like all good designers can mix the expensive with the inexpensive, but don't be tricked, her rooms are chock-full of very important pieces. ugh! Nonetheless, to my sister and me, she is a cool friend-in-our-heads.. Someone said this is a book more about the designer herself than her work, but why not? A designer reflects her mind within her lifestyle and her background. Her style is not as much a revival as aNow, she shares her famous design philosophies and secrets, and inspires readers to create unexpected style in their own homes. In this lavishly illustrated book, Hollywood's hottest new interior designer shows readers how mixing and matching designs from different eras and adding an element of the unexpected can redefine any room–residential or commercial. With a painter's eye for colour, unwavering esteem for the historic, and a finely tuned sense of detail, Kelly Wearstler, one of Hollywood's most talked about young interior designers, has led her Los Angeles–based interior design firm, kwid (Kelly Wearstler Interior Design), to national prominence with an array of noted residential and commercial projects. Kelly takes readers through the creative process and shows how a Franco–Chinese piece of vintage wallpaper led her to a shopping spree in Paris and inspired the layered, classic look of the hotel Maison 140 in Beverly Hills. Whether it's shopping for a bedside table, putting reflective paint on the underside of a dining room table, or finishing a ceiling with high–gloss paint, she inspires readeOne two-page spread showcases a bathroom tiled in maroon, pink and white stripes and lit with a dainty glass and gold chandelier. From Publishers Weekly Bold, complex, decadent, dizzying, rich, colorful: Wearstler’s residential and hotel designs are not for the faint of heart. This, she writes, is the secret to creating a "graphic style … that lends itself to crispness and richness that make you say ‘Wow.’" While there’s no firm, step-by-step advice in the volume—a chapter on "Process" does little more than describe her office’s client meetings—the photographs and the author’s attitude will surely inspire amateurs who are looking for a design style that goes beyond Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel and Ikea.Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
