Still in Tassie, still missing Flyn, Andy and Matt spoke with Vanessa Ward, Founder of Nomadism, about her fascinating life.

Now living in Hobart, Vanessa has had a life of travel, study and exploration. A respected strategist, product designer and thinker, Vanessa has worked for some of the most exciting design firms in the World, such as BMD (Bruce MayDesign) and FuseProject before setting up Nomadism in 2016 (with Sandy Oh and Dr Stella Humphries).

This episode charts a biographical path, from Vanessa’s entry into design via Architectonic Jewellery up to the recent building of her first home and what that taught her about design, permanency and sustainable technologies. It’s a roll-a-coaster of a life that is equal parts careful planning and happenstance.
