The SMO House by Steeve Morel
When Steeve Morel launched his brand, this was exactly the impact Steeve aimed to achieve with his designs.
His goal was to empower men and infuse them with unwavering confidence to navigate the chaos of this modern world.
He questioned the necessity of adhering to conventional norms and leading identical lives. In his perception, life holds a touch of enchantment, a magic waiting to be unveiled.
As he matured, he realized that no one, no media outlet, ever portrayed the possibility of a life lived through artistic expression.
Growing up, the prevailing narrative advocated becoming a singer, lawyer, athlete, or nowadays, an influencer, as the sole avenue to attain comfort and success.
But He is a creator; everything around us, every tangible manifestation, emerged from an idea.
This is the crux of existence — life finds its essence in ideas.
Testament to the potential of imagination, and the potency of innovation
SMO brand’s essence mirrors this very belief. It’s a testament to the potential of imagination, and the potency of innovation.
It’s a vehicle to infuse lives with creativity, to cast aside limitations, and to spark the realization that life is a canvas, eagerly awaiting the strokes of ideas to breathe it into vibrant existence.
INCEPTION of SMO brand
At the inception of the SMO brand, Steeve Morel intended to create a specific impact through his designs.
It aimed to instill empowerment in men, fostering a robust self-assurance to confront the fast-paced world we inhabit. It called into question the rationale behind adhering strictly to conventions and embracing uniform lifestyles. I’ve always envisaged life as possessing a touch of enchantment, and indeed, it holds that quality.
As I matured, it became evident that neither my upbringing nor the media had illuminated the possibility of a life built upon artistic expression. Throughout my growth, the prevailing narrative was that comfort and success could only be attained by pursuing careers like singing, law, athletics, or the more recent path of becoming an influencer.
Yet, at the core of my being, Steeve MOREL is a creator. The entirety of what surrounds us, each tangible existence, emerged from a singular idea.
This encapsulates the very essence of existence; life’s vitality is inextricably linked to the concepts it generates.
