Introducing the Spring 2026 Collections

This season brings together a considered mix of heritage craftsmanship and fresh, expressive design across some of the most respected names in interiors.
GP & J Baker x Kit Kemp Prints & Embroideries II
One of the highlights of the morning will be the latest collaboration between GP & J Baker and Kit Kemp. This collection captures the joyful, layered spirit of Kemp’s interiors - balancing colour, pattern and personality in a way that feels both imaginative and grounded.
Designed to bring a sense of charm and individuality to a space, these prints and embroideries invite a more playful approach to decorating, while remaining entirely liveable.
Colefax & Fowler – Olander Collection
Spring 2026 from Colefax & Fowler introduces refined fabrics and wallcoverings that sit comfortably between tradition and relaxed contemporary living.
The Olander collection draws on traditional techniques such as suzani embroidery and hand block printing, resulting in expressive patterns with a distinct sense of craftsmanship.
Alongside this, collections such as Silvano Stripes reinterpret eighteenth-century textile designs through finely crafted Italian weaving - offering a balance of timeless style and practical durability.
Naturals IV wallcoverings and Hector Plains textured weaves explore the quieter side of design, celebrating linen, subtle variation and the enduring appeal of natural materials.
Nina Campbell – Bourton & Bourton Weaves
Inspired by the English countryside in spring, Nina Campbell’s Bourton collection takes its name from Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds.
Soft greens, gentle florals and relaxed weaves reflect rolling meadows and the freshness of the season, creating fabrics that feel both familiar and quietly uplifting.
Lewis & Wood – Patchwork Collection
Presented by Ann of Middlethorpe Interiors, the Lewis & Wood Spring 2026 collection draws inspiration from historic quilts discovered at The American Museum & Gardens in Bath .
Reinterpreted through modern textile printing, designs such as Baltimore, Libertyville and Hawfull interior designaiian Quilt transform traditional patchwork motifs into striking fabrics and wallpapers. The collection brings together heritage references with a sense of warmth and character - offering something both nostalgic and entirely new.
These kinds of collections often form the starting point for many of our projects, particularly within our full interior design and design concierge services.
Why this event is different
This is not simply a collection launch.
It is an opportunity to experience these designs as they are intended to be seen - in context, in natural light, and with the space to consider how they might translate into a room.
Throughout the morning, representatives from Colefax & Fowler, Nina Campbell and GP & J Baker will be present to share the thinking behind their collections, offering insight into materials, inspiration and design approach.
If you have been considering working with an interior designer, this is also a relaxed way to meet us and understand how we approach projects at Middlethorpe Interiors.
