PRESERVING WELLNESS: THE MUSEUM OF PEACE & QUIET STORY
WORDS BY: LOUIS GUARINO
When you think of a museum, you think of these large, grandiose, beautiful buildings preserving some of the world's finest and most cherished possessions.
When you think of a couple of things every individual on earth wishes for, you can believe it’s “peace and quiet”.
Stillness.
Breathing.
Quieting one's mind.
Some of the most basic yet essential actions we can take to center ourselves and relax our minds are things we forget to do daily or feel we don’t have time to do.
A person’s body should be the museum for their wellness.
In times right now where there is much turmoil and angst, Museum of Peace & Quiet (MoPQ), the California-based company spearheaded by husband and wife duo Christion and Ashley Lennon is an athleisure brand reminding you to preserve your well-being and mindfulness and take a break from the craziness of life.
The idea for the brand came after a 2018 road trip where the couple decided to make a brand that matched their lifestyle exactly.
As Christion said, “It’s really our life—from our house to the way we spend our day. It all defines what the brand is, how it looks, and how it feels.”.
Getting rid of any clutter and overdesign, MoPQ chooses to focus on necessity. With simplicity at the brands core, the premium aspect of each product isn’t their intricate trimmings or loud designs but rather the clean fit and feel of each piece.
When you look at their brand collaborations, their collaborations are fitting for who MoPQ is. They’ve collaborated with Vans, Walden, Frame Denim, Lusso Cloud, Asystem, and ComplexCon.
Museum of Peace & Quiet will be in-store, online & in-app today, Thursday, August 24. Come check out this well-done minimalist style brand, and enamour yourself in their neutral tones, and be reminded to just take a break; to breathe, pause, and be still in the moment.
