About
Katherine Lee is an artist living and playing from her home in the San Francisco Bay area.
She started Playing from Home in several incarnations. It began as a (now-extinct) blog of ambitious unfinished projects, which quickly became a busy one-girl operation that churned out handmade objects—felt animals, painted chairs, paper garlands, stamps, and finally home textiles.
Currently, Playing from Home is a collection of bed and table linens inspired by Katherine’s original illustrations. The designs are intended to be both funny and beautiful—a means of encouraging engagement and pleasure with objects found in the home every day. Because she is always looking for ways to improve her own nest, Katherine is a firm believer in buying, keeping and collecting only what you love.
Despite the arguably superior weather in SF, Katherine holds deep affection for New England, where she received her BA from Williams College in 2008. She plans on a very gradual return to both the East Coast and academia to pursue fiction, the reading and writing of which are first and foremost in her mind.
