Liliana Silva (27)
was born in Porto in 1989 and has always been a dreamer, a fighter and highly commited in the pursue of her goals. She was always been driven to achieve her dreams, which makes her somewhat stubborn at times. She would define the things she loves the most in life as her family and friends, and of course her dog. She is also fun to be around, a very sweet person, intelligent, helpful, sociable, with a wide and varied knowledge and passionate about life. Since her early life, she wanted to own her own business so Marketing was chosen as a part of this way, pushing as well her strong feelings for the strategic and creative subjects. She entered in the Marketing degree in ISCAP (2008) and finished it in 2011. Her first professional experience happened in 2011, in a creative guerrilla marketing agency, where she developed her skills of thinking outside the box. Afterwards, she joined a luxury furniture company and fell in love with the job. There she had contact with worlwide clients and partnerships and developed also her business skills. She was responsible for some key markets such as Russia, UK, Brazil, Switzerland, some of US states among others. The experience of dealing with client’s expectations and demands truly improved her taste for negotiation and costumer service. During her time there, she has beaten performance records and mastered the particularities of the luxury world, and later decided it was time for a new challenge: the one’s she’s been dreaming about her whole life.

was also born in Porto in 1987. Growing up she has always been described as an empathetic person, a good friend, someone with a contagious laugh, smart and commited to her goals. Passionate about meeting new people, can be defined as a free spirit. Loyal to those around her, Marlene manages to be at the same time a mature person while keeping her inner child alive. She had the first work experience at 17, right after she finished high school, and remained there for 10 years. In this company she had the chance to improve a wide variety of skills related with customer service, from social skills to the conflict management skills. It was also during this time, in 2012 that she decided to pursuit a degree in Business Communication which she did in ISCAP. When she graduated in 2015, she moved on to a new professional challenge.

ection Nomadous’ collection is handcrafted in Portugal and inspired by different places in the world. The intention is that the collection transcends boundaries. The plan is to firstly keep developing this worldwide collection and in the future to segment it by continent, ethnicity, state, city, village or even streets. This way the organization of the collection will be constantly changing as more and more pieces are added. The world is a never ending source of inspiration, therefore there are no limits to how far the collections can grow. The brand’s team feels inspired mainly by the trips they have done so far, together or apart. In these trips they have encountered different realities and backgrounds which alone inspired them to create. It’s amazing how a simple conversation with someone can make you rethink the way you see things and life in general; How a sunset in the right location can change your mood for the better; And how experiencing a breathtaking monument can change your perception of beauty. This can definitely be seen in the details of all pieces, the colors, materials, textures and shapes reflect all the brand’s team members have lived so far. In the end, the pieces sum up their life’s histories as well as those of whom they had contact with. Again, the inspiration is as limitless as the beauty of the world. Regarding the materials and finishes, Portugal has a strong cultural heritage when it comes to wood working so of course the brand takes advantage of that. Of course the inspiration behind the piece plays an important role on what techniques and materials are chosen for it. Wood carving and faceting, marquetry, gilding and high gloss varnishing are the main techniques used, with a modern twist. In the future, the goal is to explore new materials and finishes while continuing to interpret the different places around the world through exquisite design pieces.
