Isabel Theodora grew up in the Portuguese countryside, alongside her mother Nina & her family. Since a young age her creativity and passion for nature has been nurtured. After graduating from IADE Creative University, majoring in Graphic Design she moved to Brazil where she successfully created a small business of crafting flower crowns By Beli, from there she passed through Mexico further exploring her creative curiosity and participated in a group exhibition called The Fantasy of Lost Land. In 2015, Isabel moved to London, to work as the Art Director for Culture Stories, and established her second company of bespoke flower arrangements, delivered door to door on her bicycle. Her path finally lead her back to the Portuguese countryside, where she is working and learning alongside her mother as a garden designer, whilst also implanting her own experiences and fresh ideas into their work. She also continues to produce flowers arrangements and flower design for special events.

Grandmother, mother and daughter.
Besides the strong family ties, Mafalda, Nina and Isabel have in common a childhood spent in between Azeitão and Comporta - three generations strongly rooted in nature.
