Hospitality Design - September 2014 - 145

Kit says, and ball returns are original 1950s
Brunswick flown in specially from Texas.
Kit reveals that she's already partway
through the design process of Firmdale
Hotels' return to New York, where in
2016 it will launch an uptown new-build
counterpart to the brand's successful Crosby
Street Hotel. "It's in such a fantastic location
that our design will have to do it justice." hd

Taking on the broad venture wasn't
without its challenges, however. "Ham Yard
is such a large project that incorporates such
diverse areas that we had to create very
different styles," Kit says. "The flow of the
building between all of the spaces is very
important. The key is to have a length of
view that makes you feel curious to see what
is just around the corner."
Around some of those corners are private
spaces for guests only, such as a well-stocked
library with walls clad in Kit's fabric designs
and hand-embroidered Suzani curtains. The
drawing room (which is open to the public)
features a large French fireplace, while more
rich fabric walls, handpainted Scandinavian
bureaus, and bespoke rugs add to Kit's
singular brand of eclectic British hospitality.
Kit's textiles and penchant for vivid
patterned wallcovering continue in the
guestrooms and suites. "I've found fabric
walling in a bedroom creates a cocooned
feeling of well-being," she says. "It absorbs
the sound and adds warmth yet is very hardwearing and lasts."
The designer identifies a favorite Ham
Yard space as the vibrant Croc bowling
alley, which takes its name from three
driftwood crocodiles suspended above the
venue's dance floor and features pieces by
well-known artists such as painter Howard
Hodgkin, including two of his nearly 20foot prints. The alley's floor is made of solid
maple, "an incredibly rare touch these days,"
