MORE ABOUT MY GUEST
Kate Golding is a British born surface pattern and wallpaper designer based near Kingston, Ontario.

Fascinated by the small details in daily life and the beauty of her natural surroundings, Kate unites the world as she sees it with her passion for interior decoration. All of her artwork is forged by hand using brushes, ink and fine line pen on thin transparencies on a light table. Kate’s designs can be found on collections of wallpaper, textiles and she also works with clients to create custom designs for special projects.
