What's inside?

/ THE COVER

A cover that doubles as secondary mixing wells. The wells take their shape from the thousands of lakes scattered across Finland.

/ THE WATER WELL

The NOMAD logo was a simple adaptation of a water drop and inspired by early paleolithic hand tools.

/ the pans

These custom, 3D-printed pans are designed with rounded interior edges for mixing pigments directly in the pans and magnetic bases that snap into place.

/ The mixing well

The primary mixing well is also organically inspired by the lakes of Finland and the archipelago.

/ the base

The optional base includes space for additional pigments, a sponge, and a water container.

"From the jump, we knew we wanted to blend the natural and the futuristic"

Meet the Makers

Nomad Palettes is a collaboration between an earth artist and an architect—two friends shaped by their love for nature, design, and travel. Every palette is designed in Finland, hand-assembled, and made to last. We believe art tools should be as beautiful and intentional as the art they help create.
