Kit Kemp, Founder and Creative Director of Firmdale Hotels and Kit Kemp Design Studio, has partnered with many prestigious names over the years such as GP & J Baker and Andrew Martin.
Speaking with Kit herself, she told us "working with people who love what they do is always inspiring, so collaborations with my favourite people is creative as well as another way of making new friends. These collections are an organic process that hold surprises along the way, it is forever a voyage of discovery, I do it for the joy and love of textiles."
Infusing each collaboration with her signature colourful aesthetic blending timeless elegance with modern whimsy, we've rounded up her fabric and wallpaper collections that are sold here at Jane Clayton & Company.

Building on their first collaboration in 2021, which saw the launch of their popular Lost and Found design, Kit Kemp and Christopher Farr Cloth have joined forces for a second time, with several new designs. This collection draws inspiration from Kit's love of art and travel, harmoniously fused with Christopher Farr Cloth’s commitment to weaving and craftsmanship.
With a mixture of bold designs like Zig Zag, and more subtle striped designs such as Little Weed, both the new and old designs are designed to work harmoniously together.
