Kathryn Bowden
I’ve worked across a wide range of sectors, managing wayfinding projects from early concept through to final installation. Whether it’s a transport interchange or a hospital redevelopment, I work closely with architects, urban planners, and graphic designers to make sure the final result balances beauty with function, and helps people find their way with ease.
I’m meticulous with detail and thrive on the complexity that comes with large, layered environments. My focus is always on coordination: ensuring signage integrates with architecture, accessibility is considered from the start, and nothing gets lost in translation. I’m also known for my ability to keep projects running smoothly, on time and on budget.
I love to sew and have made most of my own wardrobe. When I’m not doing that, I’m usually lost in a book.
