Nat Sly

Creative Director & Designer
Nat Sly

In case you missed it… Nat Sly is our current ART360 artist - her Magnetic Colorfield paintings are gracing our walls and bring our space to life as I type. Originally from London, Sly was brought up in Argentina where she ran an art gallery before moving to Portugal where she now lives and works. On moving to Europe she explored work as a creative director, creating cohesive visual worlds for her clients with projects that include hotels and restaurants across the continent.

Her eye is bold, intentional and totally original, the spaces that she creates flow with an easy and understated joy and radiate her individuality while encouraging you to join in the fun. We are thrilled to have her gather her favorite selection of PORTA for us to ogle and inspire!

PORTA x Volga Linen Tablecloth: “I love playing with color combinations and this tablecloth is the perfect color combo to play with everything that goes on the table. It is always so much fun to have friends over and crate a table scape that is as attractive as what we are going to eat!” 

PORTA x Volga Linen Magnetic Colorfield Napkin: “Napkins to go on the tablecloth and keep playing with layering colors is my total dream! It is exactly what I do when crating a painting. This particular Volga linen has such rich beautiful color."

Pallino Bud Vase: “These individual flower vases are beautiful to add different flowers and their bright colors to play with the rest.” 

Gustavo Snack Bowl: “I am obsessed with these snack bowls. They are like candy, I want them all in every different color!” 

Marena Red Wine Glass: “I love the simplicity of these glasses.” 

Alma Decanter: “I always love a piece that is handmade and this decanter with its irregular lines in handblown glass is a timeless treasure for any moment and any table. Wine or Water!”
