Book Description
古風なハリウッド・グラマーのなかに現代の気ままさを取り入れるのが、世界中で絶賛されているインテリアデザイナー、ケリー・ウエアスラーの典型的なスタイル。壁を白一色に塗るだけなんてありえない。大胆な色や模様を使い、手の込んだ建築金物と、さまざまな年代の家具を組み合わせるのだ。『Modern Glamour』では、そんな彼女が自身の装飾の秘訣とドラマティックなデザインの手法を明かしている。
本書は、ウエアスラーがインテリアとエクステリアを工夫に満ちた機能的な環境に作り上げていくプロセスを、デザインの基本方針から独自のアクセントまで、写真を贅沢に使いながらわかりやすく説明してくれる。ウエアスラーの手がけた見事なプロジェクトの数々は、彼女の言う「意外性のエレガンス」をあらゆる場で実現した最高の見本だ。典型的な男性的デザイン観と女性的デザイン観を対置することで部屋に迫力や活力を与えたり、装飾品を使って部屋のテーマを際立たせたり。ウエアスラー流のデザインのポイントは、プロのデザイナーにも意欲的なホームデコレーターにも多くのひらめきを与えるだろう。
装飾の構想を華麗な現実に変える方法を知りたいあなたに、『Modern Glamour』は、うっとりするほどハイセンスな空間を作り出すテクニックを楽しく明快に手ほどきしてくれる。 --このテキストは、 ハードカバー 版に関連付けられています。
From Publishers Weekly
Bold, complex, decadent, dizzying, rich, colorful: Wearstlers residential and hotel designs are not for the faint of heart. The founder of the Los Angeles "architectural interior design" firm KWID worked as a Hollywood set designer before she decided to focus on real-life living spaces, and her vibrant, multi-layered interiors still look like backdrops for drama. In this design cum promotional book, Wearstler explains her aesthetic philosophy and lays out suggestions for those readers who would like to emulate her "unusual and kaleidoscopic" style, which graces such famous California hotels as the Viceroy, Estella and Maison 140. Certainly, the books large, full-bleed color photographs do justice to the variety of her creations. One two-page spread showcases a bathroom tiled in maroon, pink and white stripes and lit with a dainty glass and gold chandelier. Another shows a cool, all-white bedroom decorated with a silver bamboo chair and a black wood bedframe. Wearstler encourages readers to stop thinking about rooms in terms of furniture and accessories and to start imagining them as combinations of color, texture, shape and form. This, she writes, is the secret to creating a "graphic style that lends itself to crispness and richness that make you say Wow." While theres no firm, step-by-step advice in the volumea chapter on "Process" does little more than describe her offices client meetingsthe photographs and the authors attitude will surely inspire amateurs who are looking for a design style that goes beyond Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel and Ikea.

Kelly, deliver us from beige!
2004/9/24
形式:ハードカバー
If you bought all the "Trading Spaces" books, or worship at the altar of Christopher Lowell and Nate Berkus, then this is probably NOT the book for you. This is not a helpful hints, step-by-step book, or a book of designer secrets. It's the edgy boutique hotel of decorating books, not the Hilton.
It's a book of inspiration. Wearstler's interiors show the rewards of having patience and searching for the absolute perfect color, perfect item, perfect chair. She shows how to twist tradition with a blend of unusual pieces, unexpected finishes, and wild patterns and colors.
Every time I pick this up I find a quirky detail in one of the rooms. Whether it's a ceramic dog positioned to be peeking over the back of a sofa, or a large black tassel hanging from a brass door handle, or a lacquered wall. All stuff I'd usually cringe at, but here done with the author's wit, and it works.
You may not wish to have any of that in your home, but I bet you'll start finding the courage to display more than just a Crate and Barrel vase on the coffee table.

What a FUN book!
2004/8/15
形式:ハードカバー
As a designer myself, this book was a great read. No, it is not an instructional book on how to decorate, but more of a personal portfolio of this designer's very stylish work. Ms. Wearstler is a very talented designer in that she has developed a very strong style that is recognizable among today's design work. As for the pictures of Ms. Wearstler herself, I very much enjoyed them, because her style of clothing absolutely reflected the glamour of the interiors she designs. I would say not to get this book if you know nothing about design, but read this book if you appreciate visual design that is unique and very bold. Congratulations Kelly Wearstler on showing us what personal style is all about!

Are Kelly and Jonathan The Same Person?
2006/9/27
形式:ハードカバー
Is Kelly Wearstler Jonathan Adler in drag? Or vice versa? Both are wildly talented people, who just happen to use the same things in their work, same colors, etc. Jonathan is an artist, who adoringly references and copycats retro pottery, and makes it unqiuely his own. Kelly is a cool chick, good dresser, has tons of style and can make a pretty room out of old glam junk and ideas. I love them both, and their books are worth having. I wish Kelly had more personal rooms. Too many hotel rooms which are very stagey. In the book she says she didn't like doing set design, yet that's what she does - designs sets for cool people like her to inhabit. Hollywood Regency is the word bandied about to describe both Jonathan & Kelly, he sometimes getting the East coast moniker of Palm Beach Style too (and she the West coast of Palm Springs). I say if you shop on eBay you will see all this great junk (just search Hollywood Regency) that I call eBay Regency. Both books give you a few ideas of how to put it together. Jonathan is more playful, Kelly more serious, but both make wonderful, zany, colorful, retro inspired modern human rooms. I think they bring back the words INTERIOR DECORATOR, so refreshing after everyone and his mother is a DESIGNER (used to be everyone's mother was a station wagon driving decorator with a business on the side). I wonder if these two have ever met, and if so do they like one another, or are they really the same person?
By the way get his book too, if you don't already have it JONATHAN ADLER PRESCRIPTION FOR ANTI DEPRESSIVE LIVING - they have it here at Amazon.
