Meet us!

Find out a little bit more about FiFi with a Q&A session with Kendall & Mimi.

FIFI was born when 2 passionate interior designers (& best friends!) came together to create without boundaries, be their own bosses, inspire fellow female entrepreneurs & help our clients’ businesses grow & thrive.

The name FIFI comes from an amalgamation of Kendall Field & Mimi Fisher’s surnames. You can typically find us together, getting stuck in on site, brainstorming ideas, sketching designs or catching up over a coffee or wine. Our chuckle brother style antics also lead us to often be blended & both referred to as “FIFI” on site!

Here is a little bit more about us… enjoy!

ABOUT KENDALL…

Star Sign; Pisces Sun with Gemini Moon.

Myers Briggs; INFP.

Favourite Songs; Too many to choose from but probably; ‘All Along The Watchtower’ - Jimi Hendrix / ‘Rhiannon’ Fleetwood Mac/ ‘Teardrop’ Massive Attack/ ‘All I Need’ Air. Also love a bit of 80’s/90’s cheese!

Favourite Food; Ooooo again too many to choose from but I do really get excited by a Smörgåsbord, that way you can have a bit of everything right?

Favourite Movie; Heat (love a bit of Al Pacino and Robert De Niro!)

Favourite Book; The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkein.

Architects/Designers that inspire me; Kelly Wearstler – love how she plays with colour & pattern, the queen of maximalism! + AvroKO – oh the glorious details!

Interesting facts that most people don’t know about me;
• Whenever I eat something mint flavoured I sneeze….every time!
• My middle name is Jenna….The original Kendall (Jenner)!
• I’m a pro at faffing! (Mimi has a lot of patience!)

My favourite place to be; By the sea! I grew up by the coast (Durban, South Africa) and would be at the beach nearly every day. It’s my happy place. Must be the Pisces in me!

Where will you find me on a Friday night; Either out at a restaurant stuffing my face. Or snuggled up on the sofa with my two furbabies Zeus & Tallulah, candles burning and a VERY large glass of Malbec! (or three…..who’s counting?!)

ABOUT MIMI…

Star Sign; Sagittarius Sun with Pisces Moon.

Myers Briggs; ENFP.

Favourite Songs; ‘Hotel California’ - The Eagles / ‘Jolene’ - Dolly Parton / ‘Stand by Me’ - Ben E. King. My list wouldn’t be complete without a dash of Spice girls!

Favourite Food; Always Pizza.

Favourite Movie; The Hurricane with Denzel Washington (gets me everytime!).

Favourite Book; The Secret. Shhhh!

Architects/Designers that inspire me; India Mahdavi - dreamy colours and quirky shapes.

Interesting facts that most people don’t know about me;
• I have a slight obsession with crystals… I also have a diploma in crystal healing!
• If I’m in the zone, I can’t hear anything anyone says to me, Kendall calls it “Mimi Land”.
• I know how to line dance, but I won’t “do-si-do” on demand!

My favourite place to be; Surrounded by nature with not a soul in sight. Woodland areas with towering trees is a place that always recharges & grounds me, blowing those cobwebs away. I’m lucky to live in the Cotswolds, an area of outstanding natural beauty!

Where will you find me on a Friday night; Usually at home with a paintbrush in one hand & an Aperol spritz in the other, Criminal Minds playing in the background maybe… Nothing like a bit of serial killer profiling to help unwind after a busy week!
