Known for her distinctive design style that effortlessly combines vibrant colors and eclectic patterns, Kemp has become a global icon in the world of interior design.
With her unapologetic use of color, exquisite layering of pattern, and an eye for the unexpected, Kemp has revolutionized contemporary interior design. In her first Rizzoli book, she invites readers into her imaginative world, revealing how she transforms interiors into richly woven stories of texture, craft, and individuality.
Kemp’s spaces are more than just rooms — they are experiences, each one a vibrant tapestry of art, antiques, and bespoke details that surprise and delight. Her signature aesthetic is a masterful blend of craft and sophistication, where embroidered headboards meet hand-painted wallpapers, where ikat-covered cushions blend with twentieth-century art, and where every corner holds a moment of magic.
Brimming with stunning photography and boundless inspiration, this essential volume is more than a design book—it is an invitation to break free from the ordinary and create interiors that reflect personality, passion, and a true sense of place. Whether drawn to playful patterns, soulful craftsmanship, or the art of storytelling through interiors, this book will inspire readers to make every space as individual as those who inhabit them.
Kit Kemp MBE is an internationally acclaimed British interior designer, author, and the founder and creative force behind the Kit Kemp Design Studio and the award-winning Firmdale Hotels, which she established with her husband, Tim, in 1985, and which includes eleven properties across London and NYC.
