Léo Espitalier Noël
Creating art that moves people. Records, brands, pictures and rooms.
Origin story
I grew up in Mauritius before it became what it is today: still underdeveloped and unknown.
I left to study finance in the Netherlands, found the money and missed the meaning, and joined the military to rebuild the discipline to go and look for it. Amsterdam showed me fashion from the inside, and Mr Marvis showed me a company can be built responsibly.
Everything since, the music, the design, the photographs, the talks and Force of Nature, comes from one instinct: create out of love, and others will feel it too.

08 Force of Nature
Where mission and style collide
The clothing brand I founded. Ten percent of every sale, not of profit, goes to reef, forest and coastline conservation.
It is where everything else on this page meets: the design, the pictures, the sound and the reason for all of it.
