I'm Kate Nalesu, a multidisciplinary spatial designer with a passion for story-driven environments. I approach space as a vessel for memory, culture, and curiosity—creating immersive experiences across exhibition, film, architecture, and urban design. With a strong foundation in research, hands-on experimentation, and cultural sensitivity, I design spaces that are atmospheric and grounded in human experience. I'm excited to translate narrative and memory into tangible environments that invite exploration and connection.
