Kate Trouw

I am an architect turned jeweller living and working in Fife. I studied Architecture at ECA, graduating in 2004, and then worked as an architect in London for 10 years. Although I enjoyed architecture in 2014 I decided to move into jewellery making as I was fed up with the length of time it takes to turn ideas into buildings and the loss of creative control that comes with working as part of such a big team. With jewellery I can test an idea in a matter of hours. My aim is to create elegant yet playful statement pieces which can be worn every day.
