Number Sixteen Firmdale Hotels Interior Design

Interior design Kit Kemp

The eclectic furnishings—a mix of antique, contemporary, and ethnic—keep the aesthetic fresh and elegantly eccentric.

Bold patterns and bursts of color contrast rich wooden furnishings, while exquisite pieces of contemporary art adorn the walls. Pretty details, such as colorful glass beads on cushions and shell buttons stitched onto curtains, give the rooms a feminine quality. Prints and trademark flourishes that include oversized headboards mean that things never feel too dainty.

Architecture This is no private residence

A picture of classic Victorian architecture, the structure presents a white façade with black wrought-iron railings.

With balustrades and column-supported porticoes perfectly in concert with its surroundings, only the house number suggests that the white-stucco Victorian terrace is a hotel and not an upscale private residence. And it’s all situated just steps from London’s major museums and Harrods.

The Originals Kit Kemp

“A hotel’s design is a living thing, in a way. And with interiors, it’s transitory and subject to passion.”

Number Sixteen Firmdale Hotels Art And Culture

Art & Culture A living gallery

As with all Kit Kemp-designed hotels, world-class art is front and center, inspiring conversation, reflection, and awe.

The Library at Number Sixteen features a striking mixed-media piece by Scottish artist Jack Milroy, depicting various forms of sea life perched on the pages of books. Here, too, you will find work by the late great Mimi de Biarritz, known for her humorous, intricate pieces using cut outs, mixed media printing, papier-mâché, and beyond. In the Drawing Room, meanwhile, you will discover a bespoke, multicolored moth painting by the renowned Australian artist Allyson Reynolds.
