Autumn’s unmissable design event was welcomed to the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour this week with the arrival of Focus/21.

It was wonderful to be down at the Porta Romana Showroom on Monday afternoon, taking part in an in-conversation with Porta Romana Co-Founder and Creative Director Andrew Hills.

It was a full house and we had great fun discussing the inspiration behind my new Rockin’ Robin lighting collection, the joy of collaborations and why it is so important to champion British craftsmanship.

My new Kit Kemp X Porta Romana collection looked really fun in the all-white setting.

The in-conversation was followed by a signing for my new book, Design Secrets. A touchstone for adding character to your own interiors, it contains some of my top tips and creative ways on how to use lighting at home.

We hope you’ll join us for our next in-conversation at 6pm on 7th October at Chelsea Textiles on Pimlico Road. With a focus on the crossover between fashion and home, I’ll be demonstrating how with a little bit of style and daring we can make our homes as individual as our clothes.
