Over 30 years ago, artist and designer Christopher Farr set out to unite heritage textile craftsmanship with contemporary design vision. Since then, he and his business partner Matthew Bourne have maintained a dedication to quality and an uncompromising pursuit of beauty that has helped revolutionise rug design and restore rug-making to the status of fine art. Each one made to order, Christopher Farr rugs are now a frequent sight at global art and design exhibitions, and in the homes of connoisseurs and collectors worldwide. Christopher Farr continues to protect and preserve the worlds weaving traditions, while pushing at the creative possibilities of design. Alongside Christophers own work, the company collaborates with a considered roster of international artists, architects, fashion designers and other visionaries to produce a selection of designs that remains unrivalled in its creative scope. Distribution is through showrooms located in London and Los Angeles as well as representation throughout the world. Collections include bespoke collaborations with designers such as Andrée Putman and John Pawson and artists including Gary Hume and Makoto Kagoshima. CF Editions collaborates with some of the worlds leading artists and designers, both past and present, including Josef and Anni Albers, Gunta Stölzl, Terry Frost and Sandra Blow. All designs are produced with the relevant institution, art gallery, estate or artist closely involved in the whole process and every rug is delivered with a signed certificate of authenticity. Unlike the made to order rugs, Editions are in stock and ready for delivery.

DESTINATION DEVELOPMENT Understanding what exists in your destination is important. Knowledge of your cannabis and hemp-related assets directly informs the strategy and program architecture. I engage and educate stakeholders, assess the destination, and develop a bespoke cannabis travel strategy and program that fosters long term success. The strategy may or may not include B2C product development i.e. trail, passport, newsletter. DESTINATION MARKETING The data shows that the cannabis-motivated active leisure travel audience is a high value audience that stays longer and spends more while in a destination. Through a dedicated cannabis travel program, I work with stakeholders to facilitate a steady flow of cannabis and hemp-related content that elevates the cannabis experience story in a sophisticated and brand aligned way. I advise DMOs on B2B and B2C content and marketing strategies. HOTEL SOLUTIONS Hotels are the heart of the travel ecosystem of a destination. Hotels greatly influence the overall experience for visitors. With a focus on guest experience, room nights, and turn-key incremental revenue opportunities, I help hotels understand, prepare for, and serve the cannabis and hemp CBD-interested hotel guest. Solutions include hospitality education, frontline staff support, and revenue generating opportunities in lobby, spa, and in-room.
