[Kelly Wearstler](https://www.masterclass.com/classes/kelly-wearstler-teaches-interior-design) and her iconic residential, commercial, hospitality, and retail designs have been featured in publications the world over, from *Architectural Digest* and *Elle Decor* to *Vogue*, the *New Yorker*, and *Forbes*. She’s spearheaded one-of-a-kind experiences and many private residences, from Los Angeles to San Francisco and New York. Wearstler’s designs have garnered major industry awards, including the AD100: Top 100 Architecture & Interior Design as well as Elle Decor’s A-List Designers.  

As celebrated as the spaces Kelly creates are, it is simply not enough for her to stay in one lane. Her deep knowledge and appreciation of history, combined with a prolific creative spirit, has led her into a design career that crosses mediums; she has authored books, lent graphic design elements, and created collections of furniture, art and objects, lighting, wall coverings, textiles, and rugs. Kelly has also served as a judge on Bravo’s Top Design. 
With five design books under her belt, Kelly has mastered how to find her creative voice and enjoy the journey. 

1. __Kelly Wearstler: Evocative Style (2019)__. A visually rich collection of never-before-seen West Coast commercial and residential interiors, including Kelly’s San Francisco Proper Hotel project.  
2. __Rhapsody: Kelly Wearstler (2012)__. Kelly reveals her approach to selecting materials for her projects: creating vibe trays, or physical manifestations of mood boards. When she’s building a vibe tray for a particular room, be it the living room or kitchen, Kelly will add materials, fabrics, and other objects that inspire her vision for the space. 
3. __Hue (2009)__. Kelly has been called the Queen of Color, so it’s no wonder she feels strongly about what color can do to transform a room. In her opinion, color can add vibrancy, emotion, light, or love; it can highlight architecture; and it can even become a design feature in and of itself. In this tome, Kelly shares how color palettes inform interior design. 
4. __Modern Glamour: The Art of Unexpected Style (2004)__. Kelly’s prescriptive how-to teaches you to approach any space with creativity, flair, and thoughtfulness, as well as how to add home accessories to elevate the ordinary into the extraordinary. 
5. __Domicilium Decoratus: Hillcrest Estate, Beverly Hills California (2006)__. Take a look inside Kelly’s magnificent real-estate property, her Beverly Hills home, in this visually-rich work that demonstrates Kelly’s mastery of color, texture, material, and more. 

While professionally trained in both interior design and graphic design, Kelly Wearstler is perhaps most internationally renowned for her signature decorator stamp on luxury hotels and other commercial properties. 

1. __Hotels__. From the Four Seasons, Anguilla to the San Francisco Proper Hotel, Maison 40, the Downtown Los Angeles Proper Hotel, and the Austin Proper Hotel, Kelly has fused the familiar and comfortable with the chic and delightful in her work for hotels around the world. 
2. __Dining__. The BG restaurant inside New York’s Bergdorf Goodman was an early foray into designing a dining experience; Kelly’s most recent contributions to the hospitality sphere include Gabriela Cámara’s Onda Restaurant at the Santa Monica Proper Hotel. 
3. __Retail__. With an exacting eye for curating perfect pieces, Kelly opened her own boutique in West Hollywood, followed with a signature luxury lifestyle brand that was sold in Bergdorf Goodman. 
4. __Residences__. In the early stages of Kelly’s career, she began working on famed estates in the Beverly Hills area. To date, both her Beverly Hills estate and her Malibu home stand as a testament to her aesthetic prowess.
