Through my Lens...
I've always been fascinated by the subtle details that shape how we experience a place. It's often the smallest design decisions, from materiality and color to scale and light, that have the power to evoke emotion, invite discovery, and shape the way we connect with a space. Exploring those relationships continues to shape the way I approach design.
Hi, I'm Kate Herrera, a Colombian-American Experiential Graphic Designer based in Chicago with a background in Architecture and Communication Design from Washington University in St. Louis. I'm passionate about creating experiences where graphics and the built environment work together to make spaces feel intuitive, engaging, and memorable.
When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me exploring Chicago one neighborhood at a time. Wandering new streets, discovering hidden corners, and finding a good sweet treat along the way is one of my favorite ways to stay curious and find inspiration.
If you have a project in mind, or just want to chat, I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to reach out on Instagram @katemindscapes or by email at katesmindscapes@gmail.com.
