About Kate & Jack
Kate and Jack are makers themselves. They know first-hand both the joy of honing a craft and the frustrations of going it alone while trying to gain visibility for their work. The pair met while studying Product Design at Edinburgh Napier University and have since taken on various creative projects. Jack works in film and television as a special effects engineer. Kate founded Ardent Leather after a stint as a children’s furniture designer and is now working full-time on the We Are Makers publication.
About We Are Makers
We Are Makers is a beautiful biannual publication showcasing talented makers from around the world, sharing their stories, passions and craft. Inside, you’ll find independent leatherworkers, glassblowers, illustrators, artists, potters, furniture makers, garment makers, sculptors and everything in between.
Told through interviews or first-person stories which are accompanied by photos of them at work in their home, studio (or sometimes garden shed) alongside examples of their incredible work. It’s a place to read the stories of the makers, and it is inspiring to see this feast of skills, ideas and creations all in one place.
