Nathalie Küpfer Henares
Founder, Creative Director
PORTORO Interior Studio | Manila
A former practitioner in the fields of international branding and marketing, Nathalie is clued in on what would make spaces distinctive and unique through different accents sourced from all over the globe.
Born in Switzerland, Nathalie grew up between her home country and the charming landscapes of Provence. This rich blend of Swiss precision and French flair has deeply influenced her aesthetic sensibilities.
Now living between Paris and Manila, Nathalie continues to draw inspiration from the vibrant cultures that surround her, seamlessly blending them into her work.
The various products she has designed reflect a unique mix of Eastern and Western influences brought together by classic craftsmanship. Her keen understanding of different cultures within Western Europe has helped her build a rapport with some of the continent’s finest artisans and designers, enabling her to create timeless accents and objets d’art.
Ever a tireless traveler, she is always on the lookout for beautiful things. Living in the midst of so many different cultures has shaped her belief that the elegance of an interior is similar to fashion: the accessories may add character, but true elegance can be perceived and appreciated through simplicity and understatement.
