ABOUT WE ARE NOMADS

CREATED FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOMADS

〰️〰️〰️

A store for those who are inspired by travel and craft and want to create a home that’s full of soulful moments and memories.

WE ARE NOMADS…

is an online store and interior design studio showcasing carefully sourced homeware alongside collections designed by me, inspired by travel and the desire to bring together eclectic and exciting pieces with soul for the modern home.

The story of world craft, particularly African craft is so rich that it deserves to be shared and celebrated. This store will be full of colour, patterns, and stories of my travels and people I have connected with, as much as I love grey linen, and marble there will not be much of that in this store.

WE ARE AUTHENTIC

I only stock authentic items which are made by local makers who work fairly and honestly. This is a space in which customers will find quality items that stand the test of time, handmade items that are unique in themselves. Special products that are designed to become heirlooms are passed from generation to generation. There is a focus to move shopping habits away from cheap high street knock-offs to the real thing.

WE CREATE CONNECTIONS

I want to foster connections with makers far and wide. When people shop with me I want them to feel the maker’s hand in each item, to see the little flaws in each piece that make it unique. I want to encourage people to think about the communities they support each time they shop with me. I aim to create wonder and curiosity about the location the pieces were made and encourage travel to those locations.

WE ARE THOUGHTFUL

I want to create a sense of thoughtfulness from the packaging to customer service all the way to gift wrapping. Consideration is given to sustainability, recycled products and anti-waste. Products are curated carefully with a design eye and style that is timeless and contemporary.

Jane Badu, Owner

I created this brand for fellow nomads, those who love to travel and discover new beautiful places to visit. Stylish travellers who love crafts and exploring the world around them, who love their homes and their homes reflect their lives. Everybody should own a unique piece of craft to create a home that is full of life and tells a story, treasures that will be in your home forever.

Alongside the shop I work with brands and agencies to create interiors and brand experiences – Nomads Studio and have over 15 years of experience. I love to work closely with clients to deliver design solutions that they will love, whether it’s one room or a full interior project.
