==Design career==
===Early projects and hotel design (1990s-2000s)===
In 1995 Wearstler opened Kelly Wearstler Interior Design, her own design firm.<ref name="weeUnplugged"/> The following year she was introduced to her future husband [[real estate developer]] Brad Korzen, who hired her to design his house in the [[Hollywood Hills]]<ref name="NewYorker1"/> and several residential properties owned by Korzen's company Kor Realty Group.<ref name="ElleDecor"/><ref name="weeUnplugged"/> The first of the residences was the Avalon hotel in Beverly Hills,<ref name="NYT1"/> which re-opened in 1999 with a style described in the press as "a playful take on mid-century modernism."<ref name="NewYorker1"/> With apartments filled with pieces from modernist artists such as [[Arne Jacobsen]], [[Eero Saarinen]] and [[George Nelson (designer)|George Nelson]],<ref name="welgard"/> ''[[The New York Times]]'' would write a decade later that "her playful, elegantly over-the-top designs for the Avalon Beverly Hills changed the look of boutique hotels around the world."<ref name="NYT2"/> In 2000, she designed the small Maison 140 hotel in Beverly Hills.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Maison 140 Hotel redesigned by Kelly Wearstler {{!}} Los Angeles Homes|url=https://www.losangeleshomes.eu/trending-now/maison-140-hotel-redesigned-by-kelly-wearstler/|access-date=2021-10-30|website=www.losangeleshomes.eu}}</ref>
Her work on the Avalon and the Maison 140 led to a commission designing Viceroy Hotels and Resorts, a new chain of [[boutique hotel]]s,<ref name="NYT1"/> which she gave an "almost theatrical" [[Hollywood (film industry)|Hollywood]] aesthetic.<ref name="weeUnplugged"/> The Viceroy in [[Palm Springs]] became "her most accomplished work" in 2001,<ref name="weeUnplugged"/> and the design of the Viceroy that opened a year later in [[Santa Monica]] also earning praise in the press. By that time she was also working on the Viceroy Miami,<ref name="wedcurbed"/> and other notable designs include Viceroy Anguilla on the island of [[Anguilla]]<ref name="fvogueviceory"/> and The Tides Hotel South Beach in [[Miami]].<ref name="gpowerhousecurbed"/> ''[[Elle Decor]]'' would later write that "her luxury hotel interiors" featured "elegant [[bergère]] chairs, unexpected lacquer finishes (glistening lemon yellows, Amazon parrot greens) and old-style stately wallpapers."<ref name="ElleDecor"/> As of 2002 she had also completed design projects for clients such as [[Mercury Records]], [[Ben Stiller]], and [[Jeanne Tripplehorn]].<ref name="welgard"/> In 2006 Wearstler designed the restaurant and lounge, BG Restaurant, at the

Her fourth book, ''[[Rhapsody (book)|Rhapsody]],'' came out on October 12, 2012.<ref name="LAT1"/> Wearstler explained that the book is about combining varied textures, scales, and time periods, opining that mixing "antiques, vintage and contemporary design pieces and art" leads to a more "soulful" interior.<ref name="LAT1"/> According to the ''Los Angeles Times'', the book's photography demonstrates how some of her interiors are "kaleidoscopic confections while others have a classical elegance."<ref name="LAT1"/> The review further opined that the book is "Art Deco meets 1980s Italian design," and that it "explores how the worlds of fashion and décor merge."<ref name="wekkeeps"/> By that time Wearstler had also written monthly advice columns for publications such as ''Domaine'', ''The Coveteur'', ''[[InStyle]]'', and ''[[The Huffington Post]]''.<ref name="weqhomebio"/> In May 2014 her work studio in Los Angeles was featured in ''The New York Times'',<ref name="wehvideonyt"/> and in 2015 her Malibu beachfront home was featured in a photoshoot by ''[[Elle Decor]]'',<ref name="ElleDecor"/> with ''[[Vogue (magazine)|Vogue]]''<ref name="weavogegalleries"/> and ''In Style'' following suit.<ref name="wemkellyweastlerss"/> ''[[Wallpaper*]]'' named her one of its Top 20 Interior Designers in October 2015.<ref name="wallpapersa"/>
In 2014, Wearstler collaborated with Los Angeles-based confectioner Compartés on a line of chocolates. According to Architectural Digest, both the flavors and Wearstler's "whimsical" packaging are inspired by features and locales of Los Angeles. A second line of flavors debuted in May 2015.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Keller|first=Hadley|title=Kelly Wearstler and Compartés Debut the World's Most Stylish Chocolate|url=https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/kelly-wearstler-compartes-chocolate|access-date=2021-06-10|website=Architectural Digest|date=30 April 2015|language=en-US}}</ref>

Her clothing is no longer sold at Bergdorf Goodman or related retailers, as Wearstler no longer has a fashion collection, instead focusing on furniture, lighting, textiles and accessories sold at her flagship store and website.<ref name="partnerships"/> She continued to operate her Los Angeles boutique as of July 2015, with ''Architectural Digest'' writing at the time that the store "showcases the breadth and daring of her creative output."<ref name="wecdigest"/> The store contains antique and modern pieces, as well as home furnishings and jewelry designed by Wearstler.<ref name="wecdigest"/>

==Style and impact==
Wearstler has described her own design work, particularly her interior design for hotels, as "romantic" in style.<ref name="weeUnplugged"/> ''[[Elle Decor]]'' wrote around 2015 that "Wearstler encapsulates contemporary sophistication and wit, with a nod to the past and a wink at the future. The mix is altogether her own and is tailored to every job."<ref name="ElleDecor"/>
In 2019, the Financial Times described her as "the woman who brought West Coast style to the world."<ref>{{Cite web|last=O’Flaherty|first=Mark C.|date=2019-10-18|title=Kelly Wearstler: the woman who brought West Coast style to the world|url=https://www.ft.com/content/e262ae51-4e7b-4241-8937-f3476c6bec51|archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221211231230/https://www.ft.com/content/e262ae51-4e7b-4241-8937-f3476c6bec51|archive-date=2022-12-11|url-access=subscription|url-status=live|access-date=2021-07-07|website=www.ft.com|language=en-GB}}</ref> In 2020, Domino Mag said her toolbox of trademarks included "peacock green and brass, painterly geometric prints, warm marble, slick lacquer, standout vintage from Ettore Sottsass to Tobia Scarpa, and—always—the earthy naturalism of her West Coast home."<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-05-29|title=Exclusive: Interior Designer Kelly Wearstler on the Power of Home|url=https://www.domino.com/content/kelly-wearstler/|access-date=2021-07-07|website=domino|language=en-US}}</ref>
With a style periodically described as [[maximalism]],<ref name="NYT1"/> she has been one of several designers credited with bringing "the decorative back to interior design" and mixing modern and historical designs.<ref name="NYT1"/> ''The New Yorker'' opined that since the late 1990s, "her style has evolved from mid-century modern to glammed-up Hollywood Regency to an ornate, layered look inspired in part by the late Hollywood set decorator and interior designer [[Tony Duquette]]. She uses intense colors, [[David Nightingale Hicks|David Hicks]]-like graphic patterning, and contrasting textures (lacquer, parchment, shagreen)."<ref name="NewYorker1"/>
In 2009 Dana Goodyear of ''[[The New Yorker]]'' dubbed Wearstler "the presiding grande dame of West Coast interior design,"<ref name="NewYorker1"/> explaining that "Wearstler represents the uninhibited side of Los Angeles, the part that celebrates how far the city is from strict East Coast notions of good taste."<ref name="NewYorker1"/> Mayer Rus, the design and culture editor for ''[[Los Angeles Times Magazine]]'', stated that "I think for many people around the world Kelly's work exemplifies this fantasy of beautiful sun-baked life, glamour in California. Kelly's genius is her ability to mix elements from all different eras, styles and periods. There's a certain bravery in what she does that flirts with going over-the-top, but always stands just back from the edge."<ref name="CBS1"/>
In 2022, Wearstler partnered with [[University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture|UT School of Architecture]]’s Interior Design program, to establish the Kelly Wearstler Endowed Fund for Design Students to provide undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships to design students who require financial aid.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Designer Kelly Wearstler Mentors and Supports UTSOA Interior Design Students {{!}} Texas Architecture {{!}} UTSOA |url=https://soa.utexas.edu/headlines/designer-kelly-wearstler-mentors-and-supports-utsoa-interior-design-students |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=soa.utexas.edu}}</ref>

The result just looks flat; it has no depth or dimensions, like a showroom."<ref name="weeUnplugged" /> She has also criticized the trend of "too much oversized furniture," explaining that "to create a successful design you need to play with different scales."<ref name="weeUnplugged" />
Wearstler has collaborated with several emerging designers to bring more eclecticism to her projects.<ref>{{Cite
In 2021, Wearstler launched The Gallery, a curated eCommerce page on her website that promotes the products from emerging and established artists that she admires.
