Kit Kemp

Biography

Few people have contributed more to the boutique hotel design aesthetic than Kit Kemp. The self-taught designer is the co-owner and creative director of Firmdale Hotels, a global collection of highly accoladed landmark properties including eight hotels in London and two in New York. Although each has a unique style, Kemp’s hotels are united by bold colours, a magpie eye for detail and a thread of English eccentricity running through their interiors.
