Our Team

Taylor Nadeau

I’m based in Calgary, where I’m currently finishing my Bachelor of Interior Design at Mount Royal University. My love for design started at home. Growing up, I watched my mom turn every space we lived in into something beautiful. Simple touches like fresh flowers in the house, elegant table settings, and the care she poured into the garden showed me how much beauty can live in the everyday. Now, she’s not only my biggest inspiration, but also my business partner in Monde Brut.

Home has always been a place where I surround myself with things that feel meaningful—objects with presence, history, and a certain kind of quiet sophistication. Over time, collecting became second nature. I realized I couldn’t keep it all—and why would I, when what I truly love is the act of discovering and sharing pieces that deserve to be seen, appreciated, and lived with?

Monde Brut is that instinct, made real—guided by our keen eye for beauty, and shaped by a shared love for design that feels honest.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
