Remember this post back in August? Well, the moment is almost upon us. Kelly Wearstler’s latest tome, ‘Rhapsody,’ is set to be released in less than two weeks (the 23rd to be exact)! Thanks to the L.A. Times, I can temper my giddiness with gorgeous teaser photos from the book. You’ll notice pics of Kelly's Mercer Island project as well as brand new eye candy. Enjoy!

"'Rhapsody' is about a bunch of things — different periods, scales and textures — coming together to create a beautiful space." - Kelly Wearstler

Here's a great example of one of Kelly's infamous vibe trays. It includes hardware, stone, fabric, and paint choices for the sitting room pictured below. She opts for the fluidity of objects in a tray rather than tacking things to an inspiration board.

"I want to inspire people to take risks and to create an environment that feels spirited. Mixing antiques, vintage and contemporary design pieces and art is honoring our past and embracing the future. You end up with a much more soulful interior." - Kelly Wearstler
