INTERVIEW WITH
KELLY WEARSTLER text by Alessandra Bergamini
Her projects, her eclectic interiors for private homes, hotels and restaurants, are ‘adventurous’ journeys between contemporary and vintage, signature design, art and fine craftsmanship, “masculine and feminine, raw and refined”, instinct and intellect. The aesthetic of Kelly Wearstler, founder and principal of the design studio of
the same name, has always pivoted on the concept of mixology, combining influences, materials, cultures and – last but not least – the tastes of clients. Including Proper Hotels, Four Seasons, Viceroy Hotels and Residences, Westfield. The aim is to explore their desires, but also to challenge cultural contexts and mental scenarios.
