Design Thread: Kit Kemp

wonderful illustrations. inspiring. really pleased that this book is not just pretty photos but has a generous democratic spirit. Kit shared paint colours and sources. I may never be able to afford to stay in one of her fabulous hotels but with her books we can bring a little bit of them home without feeling we live in a hotel. Her text and illustrations prove that her hotels are not like hotels, as after all, who wants to live in a hotel ? Rather, home ( of our dreams, that is ) away from home xxx

I feel Kit kemp is running out of material when she includes recipes from some of her hotels. Also her use of textiles in this book seemed more traditional. Of the 3 books I found 'Every Room Tells A Story' the most inspirational.

This is the third Kit Kemp book & they all have been a joy to read. Not always my taste but very inspirational imagery, there is always something to spark a design idea... I look forward to the next.

Beautiful reference book and one that you could proudly leave out on the coffee table.

Beautiful and useful for sources text and photos

Not as appealing as the first two but the receipes are good

This book Is eye poppingly wonderful! Kit is soooooo clever in every way. Savouring every page !

Lovely photos, inspiring ideas.
