Profile

Kit Kemp runs design for Firmdale Hotels — Crosby Street and Ham Yard in New York and London — in a signature mix of saturated color, layered pattern, English headboard fabric mixed with African textile, and a sense of room-as-character. Her Christopher Farr Cloth collection extended the language into retail.
