Woodworker and furniture designer Kate Duncan grew up feeling like a square peg in a family of pragmatic accountants.

After years as a shop teacher, a motorcycle accident catalyzed the launch of her namesake brand. Shortly thereafter she also founded Address, an annual exhibit of designer / makers in her hometown of Vancouver, which dovetails nicely with another one of her talents: throwing a good party.
